Judges rules Detroit can't file for bankruptcy... Because they have laws against diminishing retirement plans, and it doesn't honor Obama who bailed out the car companies (not making that up).

Just so you know, in that small clip of Obamas speech he so non-chalantly took out of context, Obama was using the word Detroit as a metonym for the auto-industry, not the city itself, as a response to Romneys charge to let the automakers go bankrupt.
Obama was right........ Detroit should not go bankrupt...........
until after the election.
Well, we have Devil's Night to look forward to...

Of course leadership is to blame, if their job isn't to keep the city running, what is? However as several others have stated, there are a number of factors that led to Detroit's current state, one of which was the decline of the auto industry. David mentioned that the bankruptcy filing didn't list it specifically but it seems pretty obvious that the decrease in population and increase in violence were at least partially outcomes of that industry's decline. You may think that the auto industry had no responsibility to Detroit and I won't argue against you, but that doesn't mean their actions didn't have a huge impact.
What a load of Bull Shit they are bankrupt yet still approve a NEW hockey Arena WTF!?!?
New Detroit arena still OK for taxpayer funds, despite bankruptcy - NHL - Sporting NewsLANSING, Mich.—A state board on Wednesday unanimously gave the go-ahead for a new Red Wings hockey arena in downtown Detroit to be paid for in part with tax dollars as the broke city works through bankruptcy proceedings.
They know sugar daddy Obama is gonna make it rain on them soon, they aint stressin no bankruptcy. That whole balancing a budget thing is a republican problem.... democrats just borrow it or print it.
Gotta spend money to make money... Right? Gonna spend their way out of a deficit.
Seems legit.
WAIT A SECOND
wasnt it Obama and Biden during the 12 election who had catch phrases of "OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DEAD AND GM IS BACK"
Obama gave tons of speeches about how GM wa sback at the TOP of the auto industry.
Was that all LIES?

Nope. He was pretty much right on the nose actually. It's what you call "jobless growth"
but the auto industry is decimated, so thats why detroit is bankrupt
which is it?
ow you are forced to admit that the Auto industry left detroit because........................................... .......
Whose job is it to encourage companies to stay in their city.........................
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
You guys cant have it both ways. you cant say the auto industry is to blame for the collapse of DET, and then say, the auto industry is doing fine despite leaving detroit, and then absolve the city leaders from the policies they have followed that made industry leave.

Yes GM is doing much better now but Detroit's policies aren't the only thing to blame for them leaving. Overseas wages are often better than any state in America. Also more and more cars are being made with robotics, so those jobs simply don't exist anywhere anymore. Both those things are great for GM but wouldn't help Detroit at all.
I'm not going to continue to discuss it with you if you are putting words in my mouth that contradict my posts.
i stopped reading there. Its laughable you think that

But that's precisely what happened. And it's not any one persons fault. Slumps in sales played a role in the automakers eventual bankruptcy. Theres been and less need for American workers. Advancements in technology and outsourcing are both responsible for that. Now that they've stabilized, the jobs are still gone.
No one is arguing the decline of automakers didnt play a substantial role in the bankruptcy of the city.
So you'd rather pay someone $30/hr in the states than $5/hr abroad?
Sleep well America...... the auto industry is thriving...............
In China...... just like Romney said was going to happen during the election...... and the democrat machine attacked him relentlessly for it and called him a liar.
Well then I agree with Romney on this but who cares? This is about economics, not politics.
If that were the case, Barack Obama would not be our president. Americans were robbed of a fair election in 2012. I hope this never gets forgotten and it's a mistake that never gets repeated.
Sounds like this thread is less about what happened in Detroit, and more about "ooh I think this is an opportunity to generalize the Democratic Party as a whole fiscally irresponsible"
sounds like more "ill separate largely well known democratic policies from the democrats in power, and attempt to blame it on something else"
I mean this is what Obamas whole presidency is about. NEVER attach yourself to your own politics. Constantly campaign and act like its congress fault.
