If you honestly believe that the complex global economies and long-running social and political forces that led to Detroit's current state can be blamed entirely on the political party you happen to dislike, I'm honestly surprised you were able to navigate Kinja.

It doesn't surprise me at all that this happened. Of course people were going to try to go bigger and bigger with the amount of water, until they forgot that water actually weighs a LOT.

"The champion eventually stopped him with an head kick that flipped his reset button."
