Detroit’s Failure, a Product of Liberalism and Greed
Canada Free Press ^ | 8/2/2013 | Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh

Detroit is a classic example of failed obamunism and personal responsibility; it played out the union-controlled socialism to the bitter end and it lost the destructive game - eventually all socialists run out of other people’s money as Margaret Thatcher used to say. Detroit is now a picture of litter and filth with few suburbs left that take pride in their appearance. Pontiac and Flint are not far behind in their march towards insolvency.

The fact is that Detroit is now populated with the 700,000 slothful entitlement leeches, those that cannot financially escape, and the poweratti of government.

In times past, nearly a million hardworking tax paying citizens accompanied this fine group whose daily mission was to financially rape and pillage and maim, kill and rape and rob (for real) them. They left.

You pitiful bunch of leeches, opportunists, organizers and users deserve the hell you’ve created. STFU. You don’t deserve anything. You can starve for all I care.

Liberalism seems to attract immature minds.

There may have been some liberalism in Detroit at one point but now its just plain old greed and corruption with zombie communism stumbling along completely out of control.

For real liberalism see Ann Arbor and Kalamazoo. If anything they’re far more damaging to the state because they’re “compassionate liberals” who have all kinds of ideas of how to help others with somebody else’s money.

Economically Ann Arbor and Kzoo are both doing better than most of the state but they both have lots of taxpayer money flowing in because of the universities and colleges.

They call my county (Jackson) “Jacksatucky” because we’re a bunch of ignernt hillbillies that don’t understand why high taxes are good for the economy.

Make it a destination spot for all the good little retired commies (I mean liberals). Why bother going to Cuba.

Try to imagine what could happen in Detroit with no Democrat party.

The leeches are in every major city. And there are very few decent small towns left in the South. (I’ve seen some small towns up North that are still nice and clean.) The only whites in these southern towns are those who don’t have the money to leave. The only decent small Southern towns are the ones without leeches. There are still a few of those. They didn’t get rid of them. They just never had them.
