AT THE FORD AUTO PLANT IN DETROIT, MIKE SAYS ON MORNING JOE: “THE POLITICS OF THE CITY OF DETROIT HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH CORRUPTION OR INCOMPETENCE OVER THE LAST 15 TO 20 YEARS. THAT’S PART OF THE PROBLEM OF DETROIT. THE OTHER PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH DETROIT … IS THE GEOGRAPHY OF JOBS. AS PLANTS WERE BUILT, THEY WERE BUILT IN THE SUBURBS. THE DIFFICULTY OF GETTING TO A SUBURBAN JOB FROM AN INNER CITY WHEN THERE’S NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION…LEADS TO A LOT OF UNEMPLOYMENT IN CITIES.” ON MSNBC.
