Foreclosure city - Youngstown story

Things are worse than here out there - foreclosures up 178%!

In a related story, they're considering a registration of scrap metal down in Rhode Island to prevent some of the ransacking and removal of copper pipe and wire in unoccupied homes down there. Check this link for more.

Apparently this is the new currency among thieves because the price has quintupled in recent years and it's easy pickings to get rid of the stuff at scrap yards for some quick cash.
