    If she built a Target in downtown Detroit she’d probably get all the votes.

        There was nothing racist about my comment. They have been trying for decades to build a target in downtown Detroit. The locals have been promised one constantly and contracts keep getting signed and broken for building one. Everyone here is hoping to get major anchor stores like this to open in the area as a sign of its continued improvement. Let me state this clearly: Everyone there wants a general goods store like a target, plus the additional groceries it would bring to the area.

          Why not fund local instead of investing millions to set up a corp that will just siphon your incomes?

            Well convince a majority of Americans that’s what they want first. Cause Detroit really wants a target. It’s frontpage news anytime it comes up and the last contract to build one was just cancelled a couple weeks ago.
