    Detroit's bankruptcy was caused by Unions. Specifically, public sector unions. The Left need to deal with that reality for once in their lives.

    Detroit first. Soon... California.

    Looks like one city official is asking for a taxpayer funded bailout: http://t.co/CTaOnmZ846
    HAHAHAHA No. Accept your policy-driven fate, Detroit.

    My gut tells me the community organizer will somehow bail out his pals in Chicago, at all of our expense of course.

    Since 1962, the Democrats. Not posting an opinion, just stating facts.
    Thank you, I almost knew the democrats did but wasn't sure.

    Now I want to ask everyone a question. Have you noticed that every place the democrats take over goes broke? Detroit, Illinois,California, etc? I just don't understand. I'm being serious too, I'm not trying to say one party is better than the other.

    They told me that if I voted for Mitt Romney, Detroit would go bankrupt. They were right.

    This is just the start. I can see more cities going this same way. 40 or so years of straight Democratic rule and this is what you get.

    Even though I dislike 90% of Democrats and 58% of Republicans, I think this is as much unions as Democrats. I mean, aren't Democrats in charge of economically viable places like Vermont and Delaware?
