I can't imagine why nobody wants to live or stay there.

Start with "It is 'home". They don't have the means to get out of
town, and don't know where _to_ go. Or the means to start over. It is
really easy to say "Why don't they move?" But when your resources
are already stretched thin "'Why shore, I'd move. I'll just call up
UHaul and get a truck - wait, the phones out. Probably just as well,
the credit card is beyond maxed out." Say, how does one apply the
skills learned in the factory into a Web-based business?

It comes down to, they have too many reasons to stay, and too few
to move on.

Indeed. Which is why I remain in my little town.

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
