Conservatives Should Point and Laugh as Detroit Dies

BTW, when casting stones about Obama support, it seems awfully odd you’d use the language of the left to do it. You know...that ‘hate’ thing.

Mask slipping a bit perhaps?

((shrug))

Its some contrast isnt it?

Yep, we did have some fun those couple of times. Those were some of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen up to that point in life.

Right, I wasn’t disagreeing. I’m just saying that after the city is dead, Repubs (or a whole new Conservative party *ahem*) would help it rise from the ashes with conservative principles. THAT would be an act of compassion.

Here is a Liberal’s rant at me for tell him Detroit's fail was because of Democrats and Unions.

WARNING: Some extreme language here!!!!!!

How about “thank you Republicans and greedy corporations”? Ever thought of it that way? Let me explain to you what happened to Detroit in terms that you can understand. Let’s say one of you teabaggers is in your trailer making meth in your bathtub when you accidentally pour too much bleach on the cold medicine and realize that you’ve just ruined a perfectly good batch of meth, and you’ll have to start all over again. Suddenly your scrotum begins to itch, and you stick your hand – covered in the wrongly proportioned mix of bleach and Sudafed that was supposed to be your meth – down your pants, and – OH, THE MIRACLE OF MIRACLES! – as soon as you touch your scrotum with the mixture it immediately stops itching and instead feels cool and soothing and oh so good!

Being the enterprising teabagger that you are, you apply for a patent for your accidental invention. Once you obtain a patent you open a factory in Assfuck, Alabama that makes a cream that contains your wonderful anti-scrotal-itch formula. Just as you expected, millions of men across the U.S. want to get rid of that annoying scrotal itch and replace it with a cool soothing feeling, so they buy your cream by the truckload. Soon you become a very wealthy teabagger – among the wealthiest 1% of the American population – and you are living high on the hog. Instead of a trailer you now live in a mansion. Instead of driving a jacked up pickup truck with truck nuts you are driving a jacked up Bentley with truck nuts.

Not only are you better off now, but so are the residents of Assfuck, Alabama, where your factory is located. Many residents there have found new, better paying jobs, which gave them more money to spend, which infused more money into local businesses, which hired more workers, and so on, until Assfuck, Alabama became a boomtown full of happy, financially well off people. Then one day Republicans gained a majority in the House and the Senate and a new Republican President got elected. Next thing you know, they gave all one-percenters like you a tax cut. So now that you had all this newfound money on top of all the wealth you had before, what did you do with that money? Did you expand your scrotal itch cream factory and create more jobs? No you did not. You see, just because you and the rest of the top 1% got a tax break does not mean that more men started experiencing scrotal itch. Thus it made no sense for you to produce more of your cream as your customers would continue to buy only as much as they need and the rest would just sit on shelves collecting dust and costing you money. That tax break you and the other one-percenters got did nothing for the DAMAND of the goods your businesses produce, and without a bigger demand there is no reason to produce a bigger supply.

So if you didn’t spend that extra money to create more jobs in Assfuck, Alabama, what did you spend it on? You spent it on closing your factory in Assfuck, Alabama, and opening a new one in Malaysia instead, where the cost of labor is 10 times cheaper and you don’t have to worry about those pesky worker safety or environmental regulations. Everyone who worked at your factory in Assfuck suddenly became unemployed. When these former workers of yours had no money to spend at local businesses, the local businesses went bankrupt, laying off their workers, who no longer had money to spend on the remaining local businesses, and so on. It wasn’t long before Assfuck went from being a prosperous boom town to an economically depressed, blighted hellhole of urban decay and crime.

THAT is what happened to Detroit, the automotive jobs left town and prosperity went with them. Once prosperity was gone, the city’s tax revenue decreased leaving it no money to pay for schools, infrastructure, and other components necessary for an economically healthy city. The cycle continued until Detroit became the ruinous shell of its former self that it is today, and eventually had to file for bankruptcy.

“But Detroit is a Democratic stronghold” I hear you say. Once again, you teabaggers are demonstrating your tenuous grasp of logic by putting the cart before the horse. No, Detroit didn’t become poor and blighted because it kept voting Democratic; Detroit keeps voting Democratic because Republican policies are what made it poor and blighted. You are hereby dismissed!

Well said... pointing fingers, ridiculing and laughing at others is the domain of the Communist-Demon-Rat Party.

Ah right - yes that’s the way forward.

Sorry I didn’t catch your meaning right away: there was a lot of noise on this thread.
