The city of Detroit filed the largest municipal bankruptcy case in U.S. history Thursday afternoon, culminating a decades-long slide that transformed the nation’s iconic industrial town into a model of urban decline crippled by population loss, a dwindling tax base and financial problems.
This is rather unprecedented..
From all those images of a vacant and deteriorating Detroit to this basic admission: They are broke..
I trust that the spirit of the city strong.. I’ve never been there. But I would sure love to hear from people in Detroit about this. Answer this post or send me a message on my open lines page.
I am not from Detroit.. but if you’ve driven through the coal region of PA, you may see that we have some stuff in common.
