First fired, last hired is probably still the case. Detroit was undergoing a renaissance for the first time in decades due to the 2013 Chapter 9 bankruptcy proceeding. The draconian COVID shutdown has plunged the entire state into depression because of the massive layoffs in every sector of the economy. It will take years for most of the state to recover.. but far longer in the African American community for the saddest of reasons. The social misery will be horrific. The right wing macho-militia's faux-protesters are a mere nuisance compared to what is likely in the City's future. We have sacrificed our long term future for a short term political gamble. Gretchen will not be Biden's choice and she has probably cost him black turnout in November.
