Gee, for awhile I thought I might be accused of being a misanthrope given my disdain for Michigan public officials.

People who are vagrant and never leave a few block radius are probably shooting junk or on crack. More likely junk because withdrawal starts by the end of the day without a shot. But more junk is coming out of Afghan than ever before thanks to the American taxpayer. Taxpayer subsidized Heroin - how screwed up is that?

So these junkies run around stealing anything they can lay their hands on to get a shot. However, the government likes illegal drugs so don't expect anything to improve.
I always felt they should set up a drug state - "drugland" - and send all the junkies there. They can have their junk habits and leave the rest of us alone.

But what does this have to do with the Packard plant? Well, I don't go into Detroit at all because it is such a dump. It is so out of hand that I am bewildered. However, take a look around and that is where this entire country is heading. I've lived in other states where there are abandoned mansions and I don't understand why such places end up as slums except that most of the mansions were converted into welfare apartments.

So maybe the Packard plant may end up a giant welfare hotel.
