Did Our Reserves Go Underground

Interesting story about Kwame's budget speech in the Detroit News now:

"The [Detroit] mayor also said he has a better plan to lease off the city's share in Detroit-Windsor Tunnel that will permanently eliminate the city deficit. He said he will reveal the details of the 75-year deal with Windsor as soon as it gets closer to completion."

OMG.... are the Mayor and Councillors now Tunnel/arena/bridge/airport/toll road/land entrepreneurs with our Taxpayer money?

Just curious though.....who has responsibility for fixing potholes and preventing sewer backups while our elected leaders are rubbing shoulders with the kings and queens of industry?

I sure hope these deals work out or we may be in real trouble. Where is the Minister of Municipal Affairs when you really need him!
