Detroit, and 5 Drudge Saviors

Detroit is going bankrupt.  Shocking, I know.  And while I applaud the salary cuts and the layoffs to try to barely make things meet, upping corporate taxes is not the savviest of strategies.  Detroit needs to create jobs and attract business, not frighten it away but ultra over taxation. And while 1% isn't much, wouldn't a tax break to hire workers be a more effective method of creating jobs, thus income which can then be taxed for the city?

I know Dave Bing is grasping at straws. But still a bad idea.

1.  Tim Tebow is Denver's savior? Well, you can't argue with success, especially against the Jets' D.
2. Newt Gingrich is the latest Republican savior, though gosh, is it still 1994?
3. The investigation into Natalie Woods' death is being reopened. It probably smacks of opportunism, after three decades. She had no savior then, or now.
4. Germany, however, is trying to save Europe. Or not, by derailing an EU referendum.
5. And Dems, who once censured Rangel, are trying to save his seat. Shameful. Boot him out, voters.
