I haven't heard anything about the city finances lately. Did they really balance the budget or simply roll it over again?
I still can't figure how they can get away with that.

Midyear economic report: $1.47B Detroit budget a tight fit for the city
When Detroit is short from the previous years, it borrows yet more in the short term, tries to add to its already high bonded debt, or sells some of its assets.

You're right about that - No police Aviation, they sold all the helicopters. Hell even ghetto movies have helicopters flyin'. I guess we are gettinn' below ghetto status!
