The three of them together couldn't build a doghouse in the back yard if you gave the nails, the tools, and the wood.
They are professional parasites, halfwits who can only take, not make.
And that's the problem with Detroit. If the people there had any clue about how to start with almost nothing and make something, we wouldn't have this conversation.
Can chat about whose fault it is, how it's related to trade policy, blah blah, but in the end...industrial economies are self creating. They don't fall out of the sky.
Thing you're being kind. They couldn't build a doghouse if simplistic plans were layed out on the ground.
"They are professional parasites, halfwits who can only take, not make."
Agree they are parasites. Disagree they are "halfwits". They have a totalitarian plan that is coming to fruition on a daily basis. That is intellect no matter how destructive it is.
"And that's the problem with Detroit. If the people there had any clue about how to start with almost nothing and make something, we wouldn't have this conversation."
They don't even need to start from "nothing". They only need to wise up and quit warring against each other and destroying their hoods. Capitalists would buy up all those properties and build for the benefit of the community. But the race-baiters won't let it happen. Nor will the fatherless "welfare queen gimmes".
