I understand what the Detroit Wildman is saying, but is this local gov’t of Detroit, not to mention the people able, or even willing to help itself?

I’m siding with Lon Johnson and Organized Labor. -- Ted Nugent

Taking the side of union goons is never a wise stance. If the thugocracy of Big Labor (nothing more than an extortion racket blessed by the dictatorial Franklin Diablo Roosevelt and his handmaiden, France Perkins) has blessed something, then you know it's wrong. Supporting the corrupt fat cats of unionism is tantamount to endorsing slavery and death.

The state should absolutely stay out of it.

If the state steps in, then everyone can immediately blame the white conservative Republican males for the failure.

Liberals need to be held responsible for their own actions.

The city of Detroit is corrupt to the core. In the early '80s I worked in an auto company with a gentleman who quit his white collar job to go to work for than Detroit mayor Coleman Young. Young was caught up in a kickback scheme involving hauling sludge from the city waste treatment plant. The gentleman I knew, took the rap for Young, and was sent to jail. His release several years later was celebrated by Mayor Young with a fresh new job, and a coming home party.

Fast forward thirty years to today. City councilwoman Monica Conyers, wife of US representative John Conyers, was just sent to jail for three years for her part in a scheme involving kickbacks in the city of Detroit's sludge hauling contract. The convicted felon from thirty years past still has a cushy job with the current Detroit mayor. Detroit has 1/3 of the population it had when it saved the world as the "Arsenal of Democracy". This means that 2 out of every three houses within the city boundaries lies vacant and crumbling. Of the remaining houses, only 60% of the owners even pay their property taxes.

How do you fix this? I vote for plow it under and plant beans.

The “burning question” must be asked: Would Detroit be saved by the government if 90% of the population was white?

Inquiring minds need to know.
