The American Interest's Walter Russell Mead is calling attention to the bankruptcy sale now underway for the City of Detroit. The City is looking at selling some of its museum's priceless art collection. (Priceless? We'll find out soon.)
How did it come to this? Mead explains,
"This is another grim reminder of just how destructive Detroit’s corrupt machine politics have been. At one time, Detroit was the manufacturing capital of America and one of the country’s great cities; today it’s trying to stave off a kind of modern-day bonfire of the vanities."
Those same liberal/progressive policies that led inevitably, inexorably to Detroit's bankruptcy are the policies we are adopting in one-party-rule Minnesota. Remember, Michigan was years ahead of us in forcing the unionization of home child care providers.
