Even if I accept everything you say here, it doesn't hold water -- since public sector unions have done everything in their power to keep that same Democratic machine in office since forever.
Then there's nothing I or anyone can say to you to change your perspective on the matter since you've so firmly entrenched in the one facet your believe was the singular cause of the Detroit's economic downfall. It's sad really. Until you and others are willing to accept that there were other factors involved in how this proverbial cat was skinned, you'll hold true to your single-minded templated, ideological view point.
In short, you want to blame unions because you don't like them. But the truth is union benefits were NOT the only reason the city of Detroit fell apart.
