Forget about a fast ride to Greece. Never mind France. The actual road that President Obama’s taking the country down at breakneck speed is closer to home. It’s a road straight to a city on the brink of insolvency. It’s a road right to a city collapsing under unsustainable debt. It’s a one way road to a place completely averse to growth and job creation.
Over the fiscal cliff or not, for America the destination’s Detroit – population 700,000 and shrinking – the city that has faithfully practiced the very same high taxing and big bureaucratic policies that the president is on the verge of bringing national without fail for over half a century. And let there be no mistake about it, from its crumbling financial house on down to its stunning refusal to reverse course, Detroit is Obama’s America all inside of 139 square miles. It’s also the ultimate coming attraction as to just exactly where the country’s careening to with Obama firmly at the wheel for another term as your president.
