Bond holders get paid first then everyone else gets inline in Detroit.  The people of Detroit need to realize elections and the unionization of a community has consequences.  This bankruptcy is a reflection on the leadership of those who were elected to protect this community but it is also a reflection on the voters who used poor judgement in electing these people.  I spent a good bit of time over the last year attending city and county council meetings around South Carolina and I think people would be amazed at how close their counties, cities and towns are to being in the same boat with Detroit. I am anxious to see if the federal government is going to bale Detroit out.
