<h3>Editors Opinion: The reason for Detroit's decline is liberalism - period. To garner votes, and only to garner votes, liberals promote sloth, which has led Detroit's "stewards" to become lawless, dishonest, envious, greedy and obese. This former Detroiter will not go down to Detroit - liberals have made it ugly and unsafe.</h3>
