I teach at a local community college. I showed my class pictures of the neglect of Detroit as part of my career planning unit last week. “This is what happens when whoever is writing the checks just decides it is not worth it any more. This is what happens when Atlas really does shrug.” The entitlement generation actually listened.

I can't confirm if this is true, but I recently read an article about Detroit that said this is a city of 900,000 people . . . and there isn't a single national grocery store chain with a location inside its borders.

That's quite astonishing.
