PJTV commentator Steven Crowder gives us, in the video below, a startling look at the decay, hopelessness, and tragic ruin of Detroit, Michigan, a once-prosperous city.

Why has Detroit become one of the worst cities in the nation for rising crime, high school drop-out rates, welfare, drugs, dilapidated housing, and escalating unemployment? What nefarious forces destroyed this city?

Welfare entitlements, government interference, lack of free market principles, and greedy, unyielding unions. Brought upon Detroit by… the Democrat Party.

A sobering, cautionary tale for America. Pay attention.
