The Communists that run the Unions and the Democrat Party targeted Detroit BECAUSE it was a shining symbol of American innovation, entrepreneurship and prosperity. That's the "progress" Progressive endorse
Now the chinese communists rule us.
The Democrats? Yes, you're probably right. They've been doing so since they directed FDR to support Mao over Chek
Nixon opened our doors to china.

The problem with you guys is that you say "Communist" like you are totally fucking serious.
Sorry, guy, we really did have a better country because the unions made sure working people got a fair cut of the pie.
We had nice homes and nice families and good values. Dad brought home a good wage and mom could stay home with the kids.
the thing about you conservatards is that you go on and on all day about how "moral" values are declining, but you don't link that at all with economic values declining.
The Democrats? Yes, you're probably right. They've been doing so since they directed FDR to support Mao over Chek

Your understanding of history is infintile.
FDR took the advise of Communist spies and abandoned Chek in favor of one of history's two biggest Mass murderers, Mao (FDR's "Uncle" Joe being the other).

Henry Ford did more for the Middle class than any Union ever did.
Just look at what the Unions have done for Hostess, the Union Bosses have that nice home and get to stay home, the drivers, well, they're not doing so good
Detroit is becoming a ghost town for the same reason every other ghost town in America became such.
Its industrial base collapsed.
The reasons for that collapse are many including: things like the BIG THREE building shit cars for two decades, foreign imports coming in that are both cheaper and better, the cost of unionism, and finally WHITE FLIGHT from Detroit to the burbs.

I think you need to check your history.
FDR died in 1945. The communists didn't win until 1949. No one abandoned Chiang Kai-shek. In fact, billions were spent to prop him up. The only thing FDR did was emphasize that beating Japan was a little higher on the priority list than wiping out the last of Mao's forces.
Here's the dirty little secret about Chiang. The guy was a Nazi. In fact, he was such a fascist Hitler and Mussolini seriously considered inviting him to join the Axis instead of inviting Japan. Then they figured Japan was the better bet.
Also, like most Americans, you tend to overemphasize our importance. In fact, the Russians and the Chinese had a lot more to do with beating the Axis than we did.
Detroit is not hopeless yet. Some are using entrepreneurial spirit and ignoring government to make it a better place.
A blog that discusses some of it:

And Detroit also brought us the Lions, urban blight, union corruption. Oh, and the Chevette, Pinto, the AMC Gremlin. Need I go on??No, unions are only half the problem. The other half is 50 years' worth of unremitting Leftwing Democrat rule with zero Conservative governance whatsoever. Sorry, but this thread deserves a slow painful death.
You forget the great things that Detroit did for this country. For example, Detroit was the key industrial supplier of World War II.
The 409, the GTO, The shelby mustang, the corvette, etc.
Rock and roll/motown music.
The Detroit pistons.
Globalization had nothing to do with Detroit's mismanagement.
We have always had global trade throughout history going back to ancient times as far back as 300 BCE.
Did you know that Detroit has a horseshoer blacksmith in the water department, even though they don't have any horses?
This is because of union rules that don't allow for him to be let go and their unfunded pensions.
No Horses, But Detroit Water Department Employs 'Horseshoer' [Michigan Capitol Confidential]
Add the corruption in government, high taxes, poor education and bloated City government you finally run out of money.
Lefty political ideology at its finest for 50 years caused the city to go bankrupt.
Yes it is and that is why it needs to be smaller and more manageable, my opinion.
The Federal Government needs to cut the spending or it will go bankrupt just like Detroit, fact.
Just because I try to get facts & as much correct information out to people as I can does not make me great.
Don't confuse facts and information as opinions.

Your idea reminds me of the days of humoral medicine when they thought it was wise to starve a cold. It makes as much sense.
Cuting spending in the middle of a recession is stupidity at it's highest level.
The pawn shop owners don't mind, though. Either do the rich as they get richer no matter what.
If it gets any worse there will be a revolution. How you like that?

Your idea is to keep going as it is.
The US Unfunded Liabilities is at 125 Trillion.
Without cuts it will continue to go up.
The young are going to be paying this off for a very long time.
You think that's fair?
I don't.
Talk about wages being low. It will be for them.
