I came across a piece by conservative blogger David Frum [[former White House speechwriter and coiner of the phrase, "axis of evil") about Detroit, at NewMajority.com.

Frum gave me permission to reprint it at FreepOpinion.com, and I've blogged about it here:

Frum's piece is a fascinating recount of our history, and then a taken on what went wrong and, finally, how we might fix things. I couldn't stop reading it..
