current citizens and the public employees who serve them are not the
cause of Detroit’s fiscal problems. They are the victims of forces
beyond their control, including globalization, capital flight and
racism. No one can, with any seriousness, blame Detroit’s librarians,
social workers, garbage collection workers or street cleaners for the
city’s catastrophic loss of population and tax base, the long decline
and near-collapse of the Big 3 auto companies, or the 1967 riots, which
launched a frantic exodus of businesses, white residents, and money from
the City of Detroit to the suburbs. - See more at:
