Detroit is a godforsaken place. Everyone knows that. Detroit is a mess, no doubt. Here's the thing: some of the factors that put Detroit $18 billion in debt could be factors in your town.
Cities all over the country are struggling to pay for health care and retiree pensions. They're seeing revenues from property taxes and sales taxes drop as they try to pay for expensive projects that were approved before the recession.
Charlie takes a look at what happens when a city doesn't have that proverbial pot to, well, you know.
Vital city services were cut to the bone and people are dying because police, fire and ambulances don't show up when someone calls 911.
That said, Detroit is on the brink of a comeback. Charlie shows us how the Emergency Manager is rubbing pennies together to bring back those city services.
Glad they're making steps to clean up corruption, When public services are underfunded people get hurt.
Good job guys! Love 2 hear this about my city!
"LET'S GO FIND SOME CRIME" LOL!!!
I visited Detroit in 2008...scary as hell....but I've come to love it;
Detroit's down brother! beaten and bruised...but it ain't out yet!!
People of Detroit certainly seems to be the most straight forward in America.
I moved to here in 2008 not one bad thing has happened to me
I think Detroit was a lot worse in the 1970'S and 80'S.
impressive rebound story and fantastic reporting!
love your videos thanks for the uplaod
get the politicians out of the way and see what the cops can do
Great music choices
LEGALISE DRUGS .... PLEASE
I don't think drugs are the problem lmao. It's the people who live there
Your such a fucking idiot look what drugs has already did to the town
only video I have ever seen with 200+ likes, and 0 dislikes 2/20/16
3 people got their weed jacked by these cops, that explains the dislikes
Great job. God bless the Police. Human Angels, same as Firemen. The people who dont like the police belong in jail cause there criminals. Its ashame that you pht your livrs on the line everyday then have to take a paycut. The system is broken and needs to be fixed starting at the very top. God bless and stay safe.
@oh no why cant we choose to not like police we pay there salary
I urge everyone to read 'Detroit an american autopsy' by Charlie.
4 years later people want to defund the cops...leduff its your time to shine...with all this situations going on and all these company payments

We need an update Charlie!
This is amazing.
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
The movie the crow was literally about the take down of Detroit.
I want all payraises for everyone in Detroit crime cleaned up more police hired everywhere sign on bonus and pay them double
What that Legacy they were talking about?
I love cops like this they say the greatest game is the hunting of men especially armed men and those who do for to long prefer to do nothing else
Maybe they are spending less time, energy and money on the prohibition of marijuana.
Kwame Kilpatrick's is what happened to Detroit him and his family and group of thieves he hired to steal with him
Detroit's downfall started with Coleman Young and his group of cronies, Kwame was an amateur compared to that guy
0:58 sounds like joe rogan lol
Are they paid by the gas-company?
Usually bad mouthing the police.
I think that educated people i.e. politicians have to go back to school. Because so far right now all I see is disasters whatever they have done. For the diplomas that they received whichever schools they came from are useless except perhaps as a decoration mounted on walls to show to people that they're "educated" and deserve to be respected and trusted in their works. And the people who respect and trust them are the victims of these "educated" mass of their "expertise" and "knowledge"...or just plain mediocrities? or stupidity?
High xxxxx population = ?
Weed is fine
What's the song?

Look on the bright side. China's cities are looking fantastic, low wage Mexico is still worse than this. We need to pass that TPP, after all, look how good NAFTA worked out.
