Sounds like you really like the 'progress' that's been made in Detroit since 1942. I'll bet you've really had some fun on "Devil's Night". Buy some of those $50 houses?
Since 1942? You seem to have overlooked Detroit's contribution to WW-II with the B-52's and the country's entire auto industry until the influx of the foreign autos.
Without the "progress" of the Detroit auto industry, you'd still be wrasslin steers and buckin' yer broncos........
Detroit is growing once again despite your ignorance of the changes going on. But I suspect that's due to your own problem with the illegal Mexicans that are flooding your state.............
We'll leave that for another topic......LOL!
