What's "about to hit us" other than unemployment? We can deal with unemployment - turns out, the skills needed to run an assembly line are similar to the skills needed to repair bridges so people don't die during the morning commute, and that sort of investment from the majority at least shows tangible promise of return, including materials etc.

Let's not get overly dramatic here - this is an absolute tragedy for the city of Detroit. That's a fact. Extending anywhere past that is just hyperbole.


Agreed.
