    welfare automakers are in deep shit. not sure if the US gov will consider them as sunken cost and just let them fold.

        I hear they are running low on cops in Detroit. Is this true? Abandoned houses eveywhere? Empty strip malls?

          If the gov't doesn't bail out the auto makers, this country will not be in a recession but a depression. It will bury what we know today. In regards to a recession, Detroit has been in one for 3 years now.

          Detroit looks like Baghdad, Iraq. You want pics?

              Lots of empty corners pal, gas stations boarded up. Old Model T factory with broken windows, graffiti, clowns ran this great city into the dirt. Unfukkinreal. Mayor that did it is now in jail for perjury and stealing 9mil. Cops are now low because of budget issues in the city.

                That is interesting about the police situation in Detroit. I assume they've lowered their standards for becoming a police officer? I know in Oakland, they start you on 70k a year and their standards are pretty low compared to other police departments because Oakland has such a high crime rate. But then the situation in Oakland isn't anywhere near as bad as Detroit from what I've heard.

                    Detroit is a shit hole but in all reality, I wouldn't fear for my life being in Detroit. Nothing has ever happened to me or anyone I know, well I take that back my bro was down there one night with his buddies and a guy walked up stuck a shotgun in the window and told them to get out, the car was in reverse and his buddy slammed in out of there but the car was shot at, no one hit.

                    Anyways, still being a shit hole and the murder mitten, its not nearly as bad as its portrayed. Lots of animals live there, uncaged and destroying the city that used to be gorgeous.

                              So glad that I moved out of Michigan when I did. Deuce, when we went back to visit last month, it was so depressing. We couldn't even find a bar that could afford the NFL package. Not one.

                                      Right, we should all go to non-union labor so we go down to 12 bucks an hour. We've all seen corporations really care for the people. Brilliant.

                                        Right, had nothing to do with US autos, hell, all autos not being bought.

                                        I agree that Detriot is and was a toilet, I was there in 1980 and it was then; it was a curlture shock going over the bridge to Windsor.

                                        But it was a toilet in some sort homeostasis until this latest drop in sales.

                                          Racist. It has to do with socio-economics, not color. Obama is really gonna make it worse you say, but no supporting evidence. Clinton increased the number of cops on the streets via a financing bill. Obama will follow much of Clinton I believe.

                                          Funny how this country has gone into teh shitter under the watch of Bush, yet you think doing the opposite will make it worse. Real critical thinker there. Never have any supporting evidence tho, that goes for all of the neo-cons.

                                            In case you had a clue, the #2 race here is Mexican, so if you need to make a lame analogy, use the correct nation.

                                                  woodward ave between Masonic Temple (might misspelled) and couple of blocks North of MLK blvd is getting nicer. they seems to be building new lofts around there. you'd be crazy to live there, that area is close the the culture center but still pretty shitty.

                                                  a lot of churches chicken in detroit.

                                                    way too much gov's $$ wasted in 2 wars we have no business with, Detroit would probably have more cops and car companies would have some extra support from the goverment, let's see how Obama aproaches this mess.

                                                      I was looking at real estate on eBay last year and homes in Detroit were going for $5k or less.

                                                        from a business ponit of view, you can buy as many $5k porperties together, tear down whatever is left of the construction and keep the land for a few years till the real estate economy comes bakc again, then 30 $5k lots together can become the land of a nice office building which you sold for 2.5Mill, just the land ! But I don't think anyone would do that.

                                                          In Detroit we have neighborhoods pal. I don't know about you but in our neighborhoods we don't have office buildings.
