If the issue is “abandonment” then all those $500 and $1000 houses should have just filled right up and that would be that. Those houses did not sell, they cannot give them away. Even the dumbest leftists (I repeat myself) know better than to take a free house in Detroit. The reason people and jobs moved out is the same reason that the commies built the Berlin Wall. Socialism is a PRISON. Socialism is a boot stomping you in the face, forever. Socialism requires sniper towers and barbed-wire. Socialism requires victims to blame for the rot that socialism cases. Detroit was abandoned because it did not build a wall and sniper towers, it is that simple
I wish FR had a LIKE button.
The only good that can come of Detroit is to make it farm land.
probably has too much lead in the ground, maybe only the locals should be allowed to eat it - like the Chernobyl region.

But of course you are correct. Communist cities end up in the desultory condition of Detroit. Somebody warn London or Naples or the other places in the west that have voted FOR communists. It’s suicide.

Except for an illiterate, dependent, crime ridden populace with the same politicians and unions. Detroit's done, stick a fork in it.
The rest of the country should just announce Detroit has seceded and start building a wall ourselves.
Detroit is a vision of our future.
No the Chinese bought up all the lead so they can sell it back to us in products it’s a sure way to get us to eat it.
it’s BTT
There's also the "Click Here to Donate By Secure Server" button.
