Most islamic-infested city in America as well. Coincidence? Nope it’s run by PC multicultural black liberal politicians.

I could only look at the first 6 pictures, and then I had to stop, feeling more thandistressed, ashamed. It’s looking at pictures of the decomposition of a corpse.

Comerica Bank moved its headquarters to Dallas in 2007 after 158 years in Detroit. One has to wonder when General Motors and other remaining Detroit businesses will be making a similar move. Very sad situation for a great city.

Not everyone is fit for self-rule. Maybe there should be a rule that says, “If you can’t feed, clothe and shelter yourself, you should not have any part in selecting leaders for yourself or others.”

I spent an evening driving around Detroit on Google street scenes.

There are entire neighborhoods of vacant lots where houses once stood, then a small cluster of a few homes then nothing again. It has the appearance of being rural but it’s within 15 minutes drive time of downtown.

The commercial areas have more boarded up stores than operating stores.

Yeah, well Detroit might be in ruins but they just got $49 million to buy 40,000 lap tops and 5,000 desk top computers for students, all from the stimulus money.

Interesting stats on Detroit from Wiki:

Of the top 10 employers in the city, six are public (state/local/fed/university)

Public jobs constitute 66% of the top 10 employers.

Detroit has lost 1/2 it’s population since 1950.
