Detroit is a classic example of liberalism run-a-muck.
Spoken like someone who has never lived in or spent time in the city. Detroit is like most former one industry town. The city and state depended on one industry (autos) and when that industry began to fail so did the city. It also did not help when white folk headed for the hills (Farmington Hills, Auburn Hills,etc.) because of real estate speculators and fear of the late Mayor Coleman A. Young. Buy the way the city was looking population before that. People are not so fearful that they do not come down to the city for football, baseball, Red Wings hockey games, the fire works, concerts or to gamble. Liberalism or liberals has very little to do with it.
I have worked the Pacific Northwest so I do know a little about the forrest. Places like Anacortes and Seattle Washington in addition to Portland, OR. Those were areas where the tankers I sailed on prepped for the ship yards or delivered crude oil. I also had the pleasure of going into work with a former girl friends father who worked in a saw mill bull dogging logs all day long. The mill were he used to work is still open but, Bruce Hardwoods in Bruce, MS is closed. Bruce Hardwood closing had nothing to do with liberals. If anything it had to do with your conservative friends outsourcing, union busting (Bruce HW was non union) and destroying this countries middle class. Too be honest, I am not a republican or democrat and don't really care for either party. I am independent in mind and politics. In addition, I am liberal as well as conservative on many things. I just don't understand how a hard working mill mans and other people get caught up in republican conservative politics. I guess that you believe that you still can make money like Mitt. As I stated in another post working hard and with your hands ain't going to get you Mitt type of money.Your absolutely correct. I've never lived in a big city. I do know what it's like to live in a one industry town. When the tree hugging special interest groups killed the logging industry, many small towns dried up. My town used to have 5 mills. We have one small mill left and they only dry veneer. I disagree with your statement liberals have little to do with it. Liberal and social policies have played a large part in the destruction of economy's and quality of life through out the world. Trouble with you liberals is you can't see the forest through the trees. Believe it or not we don't live in a zero sum world.
