MSNBC's Ari Melber Calls Detroit America's 'Most Libertarian City'
Umm, what?
On Wednesday, MSNBC host Ari Melber tackled the news that the city of Detroit will pursue Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcy, making it the largest American city to do so. Melber said that Congress should immediately convene an emergency session to design a plan for federal restructuring of the city in the same way the government did for General Motors and Chrysler. He added that the city's financial woes have created the conditions whereby the Detroit has become "the most libertarian city in the United States."

These dip-shits on television obviously do not even have to be able to read to get work.
So, if single party Democrat rule is the way to turn a city super-libertarian, then the way to turn a city super-Democrat is...
I think what they are trying to say is that in the aftermath of complete governmental failure. Detroit has become the "most libertarian city in the US" and I would agree with that statement.
Well, it looks like my days of not taking you seriously are coming to a middle.
Dear Ari Melber: you keep using that word, "libertarian." I do not think it means what you think it means.
