The collapse of Detroit ranks very high on the list of American tragedies. The sad part of it all is that the culprits of the mess, the original proponents of the insane social experiments/funding that went on in that city, the intellectual and professors, are not being punished.
White people tend to point to the forced busing.

I wonder how many Detroit public employees are making 6 figure salaries and have monstrous pension obligations.

Wow! Its amazing how people see a cliff and simply believe clicking their heels three times and everything will be fine. I hope the city officals are held accountable for this (not holding breath).

I hear constant liberal ideas from professors here in Louisiana of all places. I can only imagine how the west is and places like Michigan, where unions rule and liberals rule.

I hear liberal ideas as well. It doesn't mean I'm bound by them. I'm still responsible for making my own decisions. If people in Detroit were led blindly into this mess and went willingly without opposing that which was so bad for them, then they are basically getting what they deserve. They don't now get to blame "liberal professors" for their predicament.

I tend to have that effect on women. What is so wow about it? My scenario which did happen, the workers either left detroit or became unemployed. Tax revenue dropped but government expenses went up. Dems in charge say hey lets tax the rich more. Rich people say f this shite and leave too. tax revenue drops more. Infastructure starts to fall apart but there isn't enough oney to fix it so they ignore it or badly patch (watch the Inspector America epsiode on detroit and its scary how bad the infastructure is). That makes people not want to come to detroit. Meanwhile the union pensions help to cause GM and Chrysler to go bankrupt. The Big 3 layoff more people tax revenue goes down. All liberal philosophies that students are brainwashed with in college and high school now.

I didn't say anything about being bound to it. But young people here some of this stuff and go with it.Yes they should take personal responsibility at this point in the game, but that isn't going to happen.
