There's a deeper hole than Detroit? When the welfare class takes power, and to be fair, the government encourages out sourcing of good jobs, the result is inevitable.

The last republican to run that city left in 1961!

That has never been a reason Democrats will ever accept. They will tell you, "the right people have never been put in charge". What they fail to understand is there are no "right" Democrats. If there were we would have seen at least 1 in the last half century.

Detroit would make a good atomic bomb testing site as long as the fallout stayed there. There's nothing there worth saving.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783

It might stay there.  The city really sucks.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

This link worked for me last night, but it doesn't seem to work now    ???

It's a picture of BHO saying "If I had a city it would look like Detroit."

Hey my property value is going up in the suburbs so lets not contaminate it any worse. Just leave it to continue deteriorating and nature will reclaim it at some point.
