Detroit is a mess, eighteen billion in debt But you can’t stop a loser from a double down bet. The transit she has runs deep in the red Half her acreage is vacant and her tax base has fled. So now they plan a streetcar, the M-1 light rail They boldly go forward with a plan doomed to fail. Detroit’s busted budget is out of control Their schools are the worst, spending’s out of control. But if we build a streetcar then all will be well? More cash down the rat hole! Don’t ask and don’t tell. Three billion dollars it’s projected to cost- half for the rail line and half for the Boss.
My take on the light rail project that is planned for Detroit
