And all that for a measly $120k a year. Plus 10 weeks of vacation, a 20-year full retirement package, gold-plated health care, 40 "holidays" a year (in addition to vacation), a 4-hour work day, and permanent job security.
How DO they stand it!??

Scandinavia is not without their problem areas, but the smaller cities, off the beaten path, look like idyllic movie props. No litter, no graffiti, beautifully kept structures and waterways, filled with highly educated law-abiding people. Then you look at Detroit. Anyway you slice it, it is a complete garbage can. The closest thing to a filthy dumpster any city has ever evolved into.

Sounds like areat job, now how about evidence to back it up your claims?

In “the Fifth Element” a thug shows up at a ticket booth and isn’t pleased when he doesn’t get what he wants.
As the ticket booth lady is lowered out of the booth, he slams his fist against the ticket booth window.
An automatic array of guns is activated and they drop down as a recorded voice tells him he is under arrest.
He is scared s-less, and follows instructions immediately.
Don’t you just wish sometimes then when these Leftist thugs do what they do, something like this would happen?
The place would certain be a lot more civil all of a sudden.

Detroit. The setting for the post-apocalyptic movie Robocop. That was 1987. It’s gotten worse.

"Detroit bus drivers say theyre fed up working in deplorable conditions"
What do they expect? They're living and working in the 3rd world (if that.) Don't like it? Move back to the USA.
