[quote=bearishgurl]If an infusion of 2 million Syrians seeking refuge from their war-torn existence can do same and buy/lease (from FNMA/HUD?) the bulk of Detroit’s vacant eyesores, fix them up a little and start small businesses themselves, then maybe the city can eventually right itself on the map again.

I’d actually disagree with ghettoizing a large % of the refugees in Detroit — it would actually prevent assimilation. I’d advocate encouraging 100,000 or so to settle there, with the remainder distributed to other US cities and towns.
