Detroit looking for their hand outs:
Fox News Detroit:
"City Council member JoAnn Watson said Tuesday the citizens support of Obama in last month’s election was enough reason for the president to bailout the struggling the city.
“Our people in an overwhelming way supported the re-election of this president and there ought to be a quid pro quo and you ought to exercise leadership on that,” said Watson. “Of course, not just that, but why not?”
“After the election of Jimmy Carter, the honorable Coleman Alexander Young, he went to Washington, D.C. and came home with some bacon,” said Watson. “That’s what you do.”

Let us also be reminded of newly Democratic elected John F. Kennedy's Inaugural Address in January of 1961. JFK's inspiring words, "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country," independently contradicts the majority of today's public's perception of government.
This is how big government continues to glutton His enduring path for future survival. First He lays down a foundation. The foundation is first coated with a unique brand of cement: littered with poverty, poor education, crime, and drugs. This cement is always wet- inescapable from certain damnation. This foundation is layered brick by brick by corrupt big government type city officials recreating a vicious cycle for the populous. From birth to death, or to incarceration- there is no escape.
Second, He gives false hope. He promises the world, and he promises it to be free. At this point, you are stuck and the cement has finally hardened despite your desperate plodding and wading towards any signs of possible success or prosperity for your children. You are lucky to have survived, and just at the very moment in which you and your family are ready to abandon the longing for any minute glimmer of the American Dream- a "dangling fish" is dropped ahead. But it is not yours. Not just yet, even though big government always promises it to be.
Once your peers sit in a similar situation: including neighbors, classmates, co-workers, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters who are all down on their knees completely and utterly dependent of all the utopian promises big government has to offer: the populous is ideal. The populous becomes dangerously dependent, and harmfully leftist. This is not a "progressive" government. Rather, this is a voracious, devouring government so powerful you will not have a choice but to be dependent. Independence has forever been the very ideological foundation to our government and adjacently our success. I pray we never steer clear from such a prosperous experiment.

government, and I'm here to help" - Ronald Reagan
