Usually, when the administration needs a distraction from just how broke and insolvent in reality the country is, it sends the stock market soaring higher. As such it is beyond ironic that as the S&P is set to hit an all time high, Detroit - that shining symbol of the Obama administration's bailout of General Motors - effectively goes broke.

Bulldoze the works and build a mountain out of the rubble. Might get some good skiing out of it in the wintertime.
Is this story from The Onion?
If so, it is very good.
If not, then we truly have entered the nightmare of our worst imaginings.
Build a fence around that beleaguered and tormented locality, and patrol it with drones, treating the city limits at a frontier to a foreign country.

Already been done long ago - Mt. Trashmore.
Detroit is such a burned out, broken down Hellhole that I’m not sure what can bring it back. Perhaps spending $20 or $30 million to plow over a big chunk of it isn’t such a bad idea.
