There was a lot of truth in this.

I think it is a must see video.

Re: Detroit in Ruins, Horrible But True Video

Does any one believe large centralized governance is the means to a vibrant society?

I certainly do not.

Not for Detroit.
Not for the US.
Not for the assembly of the Saints.

If Detroit can go from a monstrous economic force in the early 60's to a forsaken abandoned ruin, the model that was in force is unequivocally, a complete failure.

Exactly the point!!!

Crowder puts out some pretty good stuff, a little nutty, a little hilarious but, I like him! His teaparty clips were funny and true! LOL!

Re: Detroit in Ruins, Horrible But True Video

This video really makes you think! How did Detroit go from the highest per capita income in the early 60's to the one of the lowest today with the lowest graduation rates ? He blames the UAW and the teacher unions. He might be right! Entitlements eventually lead to destruction.

What's wrong with doing things the old fashioned way by EARNING it?
