thats what 50 years of total democrat and union control (but i repeat myself) will do to a city.

And Republicans are any better? They would of let the same thing happen. Detroit was only about cars, it didn't diversify enough and now it suffers since the industry went. 

bold: yes.

detroit is the perfect microcosm of what democratic and union policies will do to a city/state/country over time, especially if they have total control for over 50 years, like detroit.

Alright show me a city that has been run by republicans for the last 50 years and is still prosperous. To me, both parties are as bad as each other. Might as well be a corporate dictatorship in place in the United States. 

i cant think of any (large) city that has had over 50 years of uncontested republican power. but i can tell you there isnt a bankrupt city that is in debt over $20 billion that has been in uncontested control by republicans. and there certainly isnt a failed republican city that has had everything going for it like detroit had. (like being the auto capital of the world, there is no reason why detroit should be a failed city, if not for the corupt and failed policies of democrats and unions.
