Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action

Rate This - you often seem to take the big government line on matters. Often government-paid teachers have that attitude too, but I thought you worked in the private sector? Capitalism has problems, no doubt, but government spending should always be "do no harm". That means to not wasting taxpayers...

Re: Let's talk about the merits of the NY case against Trump

It's a hung jury for sure. Trump will claim vindication, all the sycophants in the cult (former Republican party) will rejoice. His poll numbers increase. Unless this mother fucker dies of a heart attack...please, God....he'll be elected again. There is something fundamentally wrong with the polls ...

Re: Must Haves

Have you considered a base model Chevy Traverse? And if you want to save $$$, see if you can still find last year’s model before the redesign. Made in Michigan and very comfortable vehicle. We drove the Buick equivalent 2 summers ago while on vacation and found it to be a great vehicle The Traverse...

Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action

There is plenty of empty space among existing buildings in downtown Detroit, especially west of Griswold. The space doesn't always show up in CBD vacancy data because some of the space is not leasable in its current condition. I will also note proposed construction in District Detroit (LCA's neighb...

Rod is someone I enjoy watching. I hope another network picks him up as the noncompete is set to be illegal in couple months.
I’m assuming mostly they are gonna take the money and run.

Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action

The proposed $300 million deconstruction of I-375 is not about "restorative justice." The Black Bottom enclave is long gone. Those who were displaced many decades ago will see zero benefit, monetary or otherwise. For Duggan, Whitmer and others to even suggest this project is about social justice is...

The Grand Cherokee is pretty bullet proof. Others, not so much.
Relatively rarely do I see Grand Cherokees with a problem. Lots of Patriots, Compasses, Renegades and occasional Wranglers. Chargers, Challengers, Rams, Durangos, 2 and 300’s… not too shocking either.

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel

It’s a finite resource. We WILL RUN OUT in the next 100 years or so. Obsolescence will happen whether you approve or not. If we all believed that "peak oil" BS in the 70's we'd have been out of oil and gas a couple decades ago! What do you think Fracking is? It is getting the oil out of increasingl...

Re: Must Haves

I thought MW and others said Jeeps were shitboxes. I see tons of various Jeeps on the side of the road broke down or abandoned in my travels. An obnoxiously larger number of Chevy Equinoxes and Dodge Journeys too. I don’t know if that’s a proxy for build quality or clientele quality… they may be mo...
