Political Factoid
Detroit has become the very
first American city for which
bankruptcy was filed by a
hand-picked agent of the
state governor.*
- No elected officials of Detroit
voted for bankruptcy.
- The governor unilaterally threw out
the elected officials of Detroit and
put his hand-picked "puppet official"
in charge of the city finances.
- The governor wants to take away
the accumulated deferred wages
(i.e., pensions) of the city workers.
