The Existentialist Cowboy: How The GOP Destroyed Detroit

Muslims did not destroy Detroit! Nor did black people though bigots are posting pictures of the 'ruins' amid claims that Detroit is the 'victim' of a multi-racial society! Bigots! I wonder who the bigots will blame next week? Hispanics? The Irish?

I have news for the bigots and the right wing: we live in a multi-racial world and multi-racialism has absolutely nothing to do with an economic decline that is the result of the economic policies of the very worst administrations to have ever exercised political power in the U.S. --Reagan, Bush and Bush Jr! Blaming 'Muslims' for this is uninformed if not stupid but most certainly bigoted!

The destruction of Detroit required help from from political bigots and phony economists inside the GOP. The destruction of Detroit began with the deals GHWB cut with China as the U.S. was trying to find an 'honorable' way to get out of Viet Nam. I have talked about this with GHWB personally. My questions were to the point: what deals were cut? What price was paid to get out asses out of Viet Nam with honor? GHWB was either incoherent or taciturn but never forthcoming. He preferred to tell stories about how he ate 'dog lip' (presumably with sweet and sour sauce) at a formal dinner in the Forbidden City.

In footage and stills, much of Detroit looks like the aftermath of World War III. It was not Muslims nor black people who destroyed Detroit nor are they to blame for the gutting of American industry, the destruction of jobs, the export of jobs, the screwing over of the 'working man'. Nor are Muslims responsible for the U.S. having become --under GOP regimes --a vassal state of China. The gutting of American industry, the destruction of jobs, the export of jobs, the screwing over of the 'working man' --that's the work of the GOP which is utterly dependent upon bigots who make up a significant GOP constituency.
