Ah, yes, grasshopper.
However, the REPUBLICANS control the state government in Michigan now, and hence, the purse strings and disbursements.
Hence, they are not Socialists (we hope).
At the level of the city of Detroit, or of Boston, Memphis, St. Louis, Baltimore, I have no such illusions.
The problem in Detroit always appears with socialist planning, and the socialists have a standard method of dealing with it.
When an entitled class becomes no longer useful, and becomes costly, they simply kill them.
Very interesting thoughts in a very dangerous game: it brings to mind Jessie and Bluebell's puppies in Animal Farm, and the apparent seeds of race war being hinted at over the Zimmerman self defense case and others.
(Not to mention Obaamacare and the whole "cost justification" being used to eliminate preventative testing for many cancers, to cut back on transfer payments to the (more conservative, not brainwashed) elderly.)
Thoughts to ponder.
The operative word is "now", and the skill and attitude, in the entitled classes, needed to rebuild the civilization supporting infrastructure, should have been taught in the public schools "then".
Additionally, the socialist public school indoctrination system runs just fine with RINOpublicans in charge. The proof you need for that is the current state of the US public school product, much of which has been produced under Republican control for the past 50 years.
Hence, they are not Socialists (we hope).
How about stupid, blind or statist? All the socialist advances of the last 40 years have been done right under the noses of Republicans (except Reagan).
Your plan, while a good idea, requires people that don't exist now, the ones that do are Communist political agitation fodder, they respond to nothing else, and have only the skill of the complaint.
