LOL! When city councils fail in their fiduciary responsibility, they lose the right to govern. (this appears to an opinion as it seems there is disagreement. You appear (at least on the surface) to be supportive of city councils who destroy cities and run their finances into the ground…
Fact Bammer does indeed support Card Check and thus does indeed support efforts to strip voting rights from citizens….
Third, this tread is about Grownups (read republicans) fixing what the children (read liberals) have done…. We can therefore project and by doing so clearly see that this thread (about children) is really about Mr. Obama…
When city councils fail in their fiduciary responsibility, they are subject to being voted out of office, they don't lose their right to govern because a Fascist Governor decides to put a corporation in their place. And if that failure is a result of corruption, they are subject to prosecution by the state. That should be sufficient power for those who supposedly support smaller government. Guess we've exposed that lie, as well.
You appear to be supportive of Fascists running rough-shod over citizens' rights.
This thread is not about Barack Obama and your entitlement to "project" it there ends with the TOS.

How long did it take Pittsburgh? And was it really as completely dependent on steel as Detroit on the auto, didn't the steel industry have a bit more spread in OH, PA, etc.? I don't know about steel but the auto industry has so many ancillary industries in the Detroit area its influence runs deep. I can't remember the details but I read an analysis one time that was amazing, it talked of the auto industry and the other businesses it affects down to the little Mom & Pop luncheonettes that feed the workers, I believe the number was more than 50% of jobs were directly affected by the industry.

Jill, in fact they do... here in Texas the city of Wilmer had their school district taken over by the state because they were utterly failing the kids.
when they failed to improve things during a probation period, the district was folded into the Dallas ISD.
It happens. it also happens in places like New York with a democrat gov.

You're wrong..again...still, because this looks like a standard practice to deal with dysfunctional local governments.
Why don't you address that FACT?
This manufactured outrage is amazing to behold.
Stuff like this has happened all over the country....before today....by democrats.....
I think I pretty hit the nail with this "narrative" from the Left.
Where were all the protesters trying to stop this?

Nah, the outrage is over the blinders wearing people who try to sell the absolute load of manure that only one side of the aisle has caused all the country's problems.
I'm waiting for the spin about why it is ok for the Federal govt. to take over a failing PRIVATE company, but a state can't take over a failing STATE entity.
