Cut spending, cut taxes, encourage the folks to police themselves, keep the big business interests coming in, and most of all, get the FBI digging through the files of every single city official.

There is really no reason Detroit should be in the kind of shape its in. There is far greater freedom in Detroit than there is in most major cities. The real problem is the city council protection racket.

Can someone give me ONE example of something run by liberals that 1. actually works, and 2. is not bleeding money? This is a serious question that only reads like sarcasm.

Nothing that higher taxes and a “living wage” couldn’t solve.

My gnomes here in SE Michigan got it, I was a nave and thought Orr was the fix-it guy..

As my gnomes note, he is not, he is here to prepare the city for Chapter 11, bet on it...

This is a warning shot to that effect...

“The situation is severe,” Orr said. “It’s worse that we originally thought. It ain’t good.”

Well then, the solution's simple: Throw some gasoline on it, set it on fire and let it burn to the ground.

Problem solved.

Well, no matter what, the city won’t be in the same position in a year and a half. That’s true whether there is a turn around, or if the city sinks into the abyss.
