Oh, joy… today makes it “official”.

Belle Isle in Detroit is set to officially become Michigan’s newest state park.
The state is taking over the city-owned park under a 30–year lease deal with Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr.
On Oct. 1, Orr and Gov. Rick Snyder signed a proposed lease of the island to turn it into a state park; Detroit City Council counter-offered with a 10-year lease proposal, which was ultimately rejected by a state panel.
Included in the announcement of the proposed lease was the promise that the state would invest $10 million to $20 million in the park within the next three years.
The move goes into effect today; it’s expected to
save the bankrupt city[cost all state taxpayers] between $4 million and $6 million a year.

For those unaware, the NFL is tax-exempt and also plundering our wallets for a $Billion a year.
Have you ever heard of the old expression, “like placing a diamond on a goats ass” ? Billionaire moochers and looters with their bought off politicians enabling taxpayer funded Flavian Amphitheaters are a good definition of it.
When the Lions and Tigers stadium deal was struck, one newspaper headline headline joyfully proclaimed a “Detroit comeback.” William Clay Ford, Jr., the Lions’ vice chairman, said that being “an integral part of Detroit’s renaissance is an absolute honor of the highest degree.”
And, a short 14 years later, Detroit files for Chapter 9 protection. Brilliant propaganda espoused by, Mr. Bill One playoff win in 56 years Ford Jr., yes?
