Nautikos, how strange, since Wiley says a plant is moving to U.S.

FSI, Baltimore may be further down on the list. These are top worst five.

Rumor, Detroit's a disaster.

Wiley, the plant may still not get rid of unions in U.S. nor make
bigger profits.

Detroit doesn't surprise me! Last time I was down there, most Americans had moved south to Windsor, on the Canadian side of the river...

Not surprised on Detroit, Flint or Sac for that matter having been to all three of them numerous times! sam

They must be really bad if Baltimore didn't make the list.

we hear a lot about Flint and Detroit especially...
I remember when I was a kid, going to Detroit shopping with my Mom was a real adventure....now, downtown, there's basically nothing there but the stadiums and the bars...

That is so very unsettling, whatever will fix it I wonder.Now the jobs are leaving here, my Son IL lost his job in a paper mill in BC after working there for 35 years. The plant closed and is moving to New York, and it's a Québec owned company. They go where they can get rid of the unions and make bigger profits now by paying low salaries like China does.Wonderful.
