A bridge to somewhere
It may seem that suburbanites sit atop ivory towers and gaze down at the crazy doings in the city of Detroit. That's ironic because all of the towers and skyscrapers are located downtown. But suburbanites are undeterred. We'll make ivory towers out of a White Castle which, by the way, is one of the few things common to both urban and suburban landscapes.
Everything Detroit does affects the suburbs and those of us who like to enjoy our Pleasant Valley Sundays unaffected -- resent it. And, yes, I just referenced The Monkees. You won't see an urbanite do that.
The latest headline stealer is the proposed bridge from Detroit to Canada. Gov. Rick Snyder wants it, but he doesn't want a successful, private businessman to build it.
If Snyder plans to someday cross his own taxpayer-paid bridge, his surprising anti-business position will surely make Customs officials demand to see his Republican credentials.
