MSNBC Guest: ‘I See Detroit as the City on the Hill ... the Canary in the Coal Mine’

‘The wealth moved out of Detroit; it left the poorest behind, and now they are having to take the burden of the destruction of something they didn’t have a piece in making’

BARLOW: "I just want to say, if I have one second --"
REID: "Sure, quickly."
BARLOW: "--That I see Detroit as the city on the hill, you know. The canary in the coal mine. This is the future of a lot of our municipalities and cities if we don't get our act together and question the larger economic and political choices and models we have chosen. The wealth moved out of Detroit. It left the poorest behind, and now they are having to take the burden of the destruction of something they didn't have a piece in making, and I just really want to say I don't think Detroit's going to be the last city going through this."
REID: "Indeed. Well, we hope, we hope it will be, indeed. Thank you very much."
