Che -Guevara Posted July 18, 2013 Is there even any precedence for a city of this size going bankrupt? I know Jefferson County (AL) either did go bankrupt or came close. Well, it's an opportunity. The city was never able to transform itself like the rest industrial cities. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit is certainly the largest, and i agree it represents an opportunity for this iconic city. it will hand republicans enormous ammunition though.

I was watching the national news earlier and as they were mentioning the news of the bankruptcy they had a picture of the black mayor laughing on the screen.
