I recently saw a documentary on Pivot channel about how Detroit became a living zombie town, it started with black riots in 1960s that promoted white flight and businesses with them.

Then the remaining zombies (on welfare mostly) kept electing the most corrupt officials to further fleece the treasury, making sure there were few working government services.

I guess this shows that Democracy doesn’t cure all ills, contrary to what libs claim.
