yes i do. if it will save jobs do it in this environment we need another job lost like we need another hole in the head. we only gain 6 mill a year off of the tunnel and they want to give us 75 mill to LEASE it (please stop saying sale it) the governments have came together and agreed on it.(the US and Canada) + windsor. the only hold up is the City Councel. WOW. anything can happen but I hope they really think about the lives they are going to affect with their decission. P.S. if they would have listened to the budget or read it they would have known about the importance of this deal long ago, instead they didnt want to here it for personal reasons

It is normal for the Mayor to use workers as pawns, as they really are worthless to him. When the bridge it out of the city's hands there is no lock on the fees that may change. Privatizing a city service only lines someone's pocket. I can't believe that losing Six Million a year is in the citizens best interest, as the Mayor has time and time again helped his friends before the people. If you sell the tunnel what do you do next year when the budget falls short? Six million will be missing right from the start.

No, Kwame should be made to repay the 9 million+ to help the city budget. Also his salary for the years he has been in seeing as most of those years were spent in deceiving everyone.

I cant respond to ignorance. but tall mkes a good point. it would take 12.5 years to get 75 mill off of the tunnel and they only want to lease it for 10 years. seams like a good deal to me

Why can't the State take it over?

bye bye
because the state does not own it

IM WITH FORMER DETROITER SELL IT ALL EXCEPT IT WOULD BE FOLLOWED BY THE BULLDOZERS

If Kwame laid off some of his body guards, his gardener, the pool guy. Stop taking so many trips to his vacation home in Florida (at the tax payer expense of course) we could probably save a kool mill right there. If he fire a couple of his personal lawyers from his dream team that's another mill!

It's quite simple really; When the Mayor has ripped off too much money, he uses the city assets & city employees to foot the bills. I see the Mayor has no trouble hiring high end lawyers & people like Monica Conyers taking a trip to London for "city employee union talks". I know most of the corruption is well hidden in the new construction along the Riverfront, the New Center area and the Woodward Corridor because I worked there & saw it & reported it. Why that issue is ignored by the media & officials is beyond me but that is where the real money is being shuffled around while qualified city laborers are being side-stepped by major construction firms like Jonna Companies and inner-city departments like New Detroit. One can bet it goes all the way up to the thug Mayor & his cronies.

And people should stop comparing kk to coleman coleman is dead, and another thing, kk has done anything that wasn't already is progress before he got in office, he has spent plenty money laughed in our faces at the same time and his mother and father and council buddies and police chief and officers no if that tell the truth it won't be anymore free rides at the tax payers expense, Why is he still here damn I hate to say that I'm from Detroit we're the laugh stock everywhere you go!!!!
