Hey, if you enjoy Detroit, I hope you stay there, enjoy it, and live to be 100...
 
You and rocky WILL be the only two people left, so why not cut the cost of your telephone and simply share a party line???...

A lot of Americans feel the same way about the greed of the UAW.

Isn't that a scene from "8-Mile" with Eminem?

Didn't see it so don't know. The pic is from a site called Downtown Ruins.

I found all those pictures somewhat depressing. You would think the people of Detroit would have a bit more pride in their city. Allowing all those beautiful buildings to fall into disrepair is a real picture of the UAW and their deterioration over the last 40 years. A once proud work force now just a bunch of bums looking for a handout from the rest of the country.

I was just looking at pictures of the Masonic Temple Theater that seats 4300. That is pretty nice also. Are the 3 you pictured all still in use, or are they part of the urban decay?

"A Fox News/Opinion Dynamics poll conducted Dec. 9-10 found that 43 percent blamed management and executives for the auto industry's plight, while 15 percent blamed labor unions."

i was just in the detroit area last weekend.
although not in detroit, i really enjoy going to the henry ford museum/greenfield village. the sense of respect for us history is pretty moving for me.
a lot of great old cars, trains, plus a lot of industrial equipment.
where else can you see the wright brothers bicycle shop or thomas edisons menlo park lab? there are even houses from connecticut.
