I thought it was a good article. He says that the Dems claim the people of Detroit aren’t responsible for the mess, because all they did was vote for the corrupt pols. However, he disagrees and says that you can’t deny human responsibility for the situation and make it sound like some kind of impersonal force like a hurricane. They voted again and again for corruption and mismanagement and tolerated it because Detroit is a one -party town, and he doesn’t think the rest of us should be asked to bail out these many dysfunctional Democrat towns and cities that are collapsing under the weight of their own corruption.
One thing that no one mentions about the elections in Detroit is that the ballot is nonpartisan. “Democrat” could be right wing for some of these people.
I tend to agree with you. This is a danger of democracy. I have heard it defined as two foxes and a chicken voting on what to have for dinner...
