Detroit the one time model of American Industrial Genius has become the “Poster Boy” for the democratic parties entitlement mentality. Have these policies payed off? No! since 1961 when the first Democratic Mayor for the next 49 years of Democratic Mayors began to implement entitlement Democratic Entitlement Programs within Detroit.
This Grand Progressive experiment has clearly failed, yet the same policies are continually forced upon the American people. The Models Cities Program which stole $ millions of taxpayers dollars was the first great step in creating the “Central Urban Planning Experiment” resulting in the above mentioned carnage that we see today. The radical leftist economic policies fail this is crystal clear . Detroit has been on the receiving end of every government handout since 1961.
Yup. Detroit is Exhibit A for the decay of Urban America.
Not a pretty sight.
Detroit was once considered so important, “the arsenal of democracy”, that it was the first US city protected by a missile defense system. The remnants of the system now house the homeless.
