Detroit has been run down by Democrats

I have been reading periodic claims that Detroit is going through a rebirth, but I am not yet sold on the argument.
 
Downtown Detroit seems to be making a comeback, but 2-blocks past the Central Business District, the rest of the City lays in ruins!

New Orleans, Jackson, Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa, Philly, Baltimore, St. Louis, Seattle, Portland, Baton Rouge, Monroe, Shreveport, Cleveland, Kansas City, Little Rock, Memphis, Charleston, Charlotte, Brooklyn, Oakland, Watts, Los Angeles, Jersey City, Atlantic City, Vegas, and Cincinnati, all seem to experiencing some revitalizations of their CBD's, but violent crime, drugs, alcohol and gambling addictions, mixed in with tolerate progressive policies are plaguing all of these Cities and Towns, in 2017!
 
Hey, look at all the green space now.

I lived in Tampa 16 years and moved in 2010 to Arcadia Fl. Best move ever, Tampa SUCKS out loud.
 
Ah yes, I had heard about all of the Violent in Detroit. My heart goes out to all the poor innocent Detroitites getting caught in the crossfire between Judge Dredd and various perps. 1 like = 1 prayer.

Detroit seems to be having more than its share of Violent, Drug Addictions, Ghettos and Slums. The Public School System is in shambles and the city is totally bankrupt!

Yeah, the corporate elite loved all those people when they needed them to build their cars in 20,000 employee factories back in the 50's and 60's, even well into the 70's. Now? Not so much. We build cars in Mexico and China or in rural Tennessee and Alabama. Let whoever is left in Detroit fend for themselves....and, often they are doing exactly that.

The new hell is Miami. Hell, can't even be a cop there unless you're fluent in Spanish. There is no way anyone speaking only English could ever interrogate a suspect.

Corporations fault of course.... Has nothing to do with the high cost, red tape and excessive government control...

Unions, politicians, corporate greed, employee apathy, poor workmanship, drugs, alcohol, you name it. Everyone is to blame to some degree. But, you gotta remember, someone brought all those people up to Detroit....and then they left them there. :roll:
