Detroit is a city that demonstrates what happens when you take an amazingly successful economy and let it get run by corrupt politicians, thuggish unions, and an out of control welfare state ...

It is very unlikely that the permanent under-class of uneducated citizens who are now dependent on the welfare state, or the unions who feed off the husk of a once great city, will ever vote for the kind of change that is needed to restore Detroit to its former status; and anyone who wants a better life will move away, leaving Detroit to continue to rot.
