Okay, but they are trying to blame the decline of Detroit on a Democratic government…which is a spurious argument. While some of the elected leaders might not have been the best for Detroit, there were so many other internal and external factors that were completely out of the hands of local politicians.
We desperately need to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S., and enacting some reasonable tariffs that offset the lower wages and lax labor and environmental regulations would be a good start. If another country has better access to raw materials, or performs better work, then let them compete based on that. But trying to drive every worker into the ground is not the way to a better world for society.
