Detroit before and after

The state went bankrupt ... Even their medical plan has no money. Doctors have to wait 52-54 weeks to receive payment for services because the state has no money. ( most medical plans are self funded in the USA - the employer sets aside money to pay bills and the insurance company just administers and processes claims to make payment from these accounts)

Actually the city of Detroit went bankrupt. Not Michigan

True - but a shame none the less.

They built a new state of the art school in 2006, so this one was no longer needed. The bankruptcy had nothing to do with it, check out the article and more pictures: http://www.boredpanda.com/abandoned-detroit-school-then-and-now/

They fell apart during the global recession and was abandoned. I didn't know what happened since I'm not American either, so I asked my dad who knows about his stuff and is right next to me.

The bankrupt was mostly caused by corrupt political leaders

Thanks!

The auto business is alive and booming. But GM, the major auto business in Detroit went bankrupt. Since a lot of people have jobs there, a lot of people got let off. Unemployment went up, money to the state went down. And lickety split, you're bankrupt

The black and white pics will help you figure it out.

Ohh now I see it. It looks like Katrina hit that place

They are building a new athletic facility in the next year or so, keep an eye out for the construction: http://www.boredpanda.com/abandoned-detroit-school-then-and-now/

Yeah, and their building of more functional and workable schools that can house more students... Who do they think they are?

It doesn't matter how many students the schools can hold if the kids already know that big brother will give them my families money no matter what.
