"The entire system is responsible for many of Virginia woes, since
counties have no responsibility for the 20th-century issues that confront a
neighboring city (urban poor, local transportation, crumbling school systems
etc)."

re-formation that add much more complexity to the the "20th-century issues" 
than the statement indicts.
