Detroit itself has been declining every year. I think the city itself declared bankruptcy. The city is filled with abandoned houses, buildings, entire neighborhoods…large amount of crime, large amount of unemployment. Seems to me that the city is going down the shitter.
@Dutchess_III I understand that, but not even access to cold water, at least? Wow. Well I guess I don’t know how it works in the US, but in Canada running water is free. If you don’t pay your heating bills then you don’t get warm and hot water, but if you have a place to stay, no matter how poor you are, you have running water. I agree that denying this to people is a violation of human rights.
But what is wrong with Detroit; shitty ass economy that hasn’t been getting better since 1950, according to Wiki.
