Went to school in Detroit and worked downtown. Spent some years building schools for the Detroit Board of Education. We would build a new school and it would be trashed in two weeks - windows gone, sinks cracked, copper pipe broken out and stolen, and (my favorite) bathroom doors broken off. You can blame Detroit's problems on a lack of planning by the city fathers but the decay is deeper seated than that. At the risk of looking like I am trying to make a political point, there are a lot of parallels between Detroit and the present decline of the United States. My only source of optimism is that we can't all run away from the US.
