ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HAITIANS, NIGERIANS, MEXICANS OR EXACTLY WHAT KIND OF IMMIGRANT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg thinks that the city of Detroit should repopulate itself with immigrants.
And just which immigrants is he referring to?
Detroit Mayor Dave Bing can't create enough jobs for Detroiters already here, let alone create jobs for incoming immigrants.
A great deal has been said regarding the how incoming immigrants could create small businesses in Detroit. Unless the incoming immigrants are bringing their own money, they would have to access available pools of capital that some would say are shut off to "regular" Detroiters. That then would imply that some sort of banking and loan preference would be afforded to new immigrants to Detroit, sort of like a financial affirmative action plan. OH OH!
Some Detroiters are concerned that this may be a way to balance the city racially...as if there was something magical about creating a safe, clean, and inviting city with an influx of new immigrants.
How do you feel about that?

The Mayor of New York needs to stay out of Detroit's problems. His solution is to hire immigrants for modern day salvery. You can't bring them hear and don't school and train them. They can't wonder around just to repopulate the city. Detroiter's should be in line for any perks given out first. The immigrants are still going to get tax breaks and benefits americans can't get. What's wrong with this picture. Detroit is not a dumping ground. Now we really know what other leaders thinking about the city of Detroit.
