  1. I think we need to get somebody in there that actually cares about the city and actually cares about improving it instead of just reaping the benefits he gets. I hope they get him on his most recent charges so we can end this whole ridiculous affair.


  2. It seems the citizens keep electing corrupt and incapable officials.  The officials want other communities to bail them out of their messes, but they don't want to change the terrible way they run (or don't run) things.  At some point, the citizens will hopefully elect competent politicians and administrators to office.  

    Until then, they get what they voted for.  Since past officials have run businesses out of the area with exorbitant taxes and lousy services, anyone coming into office needs to court businesses with tax breaks, credits, etc., to try and get the economy back on its feet.  They will have to undo a lot of damage caused by decades of destruction and a population prone to expecting everyone else to take care of them instead of handling their own problems.  Until the constituents vote decent people into office and take action in their own communities to improve them, they will keep the same mess they've been perpetuating for decades.  

  3. This is question is totally offbase by trying to infer that the race of the people of Detroit has something to do with the city's problems.  If that were the case, people would be able to infer that a certain race of people are responsible for the nation's economic problems such as the record number of foreclosures, job layoffs, increase in food prices, skyrocketing gas prices, downturn in consumer confidence, Wallstreet expectations not met, etc. But that would be offbase as well. It is quite ignorant to blame a race of people for the action of one person or a handful of people.  That shows a limitation in one's thought processes.

    A system steeped in mismanagement is the answer why cities, counties, and the nations are going under.  Feel free to read the news and books to find the truth.
