It is hard to care about anything in Detroit or anything their rich families do ever since the summer of floyd. Watching that bitch ford heiress bend the knee let's me know all I need to assess their commitment to order. As long as they don't offend a certain demographic that still calls the shots after coleman young helped destroyed the city.
I had a co-worker who lived in downtown Detroit. His nice neighborhood was patrolled by armored vehicles to keep out the riff-raff. While this sounds dystopian, it's only getting better, and such "green zones" are expanding.
There is hope Detroit becomes a jewel again in 50 years.
Great and insightful article. I’ve pondered a potential outcome of AI’s advent would be a return to feudalism, especially with the concentration of wealth in fewer hands and AI accelerating this. Also, I looked up “Green Zone Detroit” to visualize where this protected zone is and it referred me to places in Detroit where weed could be sold haha.
Just out of curiosity, where do the workers live? In the Green Zone or do they commute into town? Living in the Green Zone requres schools for their children, dentists, hostipals that won't kill them, stores that actually sell healthy food and not processed garbage and can fend off the parasites, veterinarians, etc.
I would think at some point there's going to be lawsuits concerning racial discrimination and disparate impact, i.e., arresting or even stopping "youths" from enjoying the Green Zone vibes, or some kind of low income housing shakedown engineered by the all-black city council and mayor.
I'd also bet that these rich guys are being shaken down by the politicians for "donations" and will get tired of dealing with that and collapsing infrastructure, like sewage, electricity, etc.

Good poaching. It is definetly a concept that can be expanded further

Almost everyone commutes from the suburbs.
