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.

Like Steyn said, if you saw Hiroshima today and Detroit today and didn’t know better you’d think it was Japan that won the war with an atomic bomb.

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.
