I have a few questions.
Does anyone see anything wrong with the picture that Detroit is presenting? First, Orr brings in his law firm to do work for Detroit, at a very very high cost to City taxpayers. Then, we get Gary Brown, hired by Orr with a salary of $225,000. Then, we get a new police chief, salary $225,000. Then we get a chief of staff [[with questionable credentials), salary $225,000. Now a new CFO, salary $225,000.
Then, Orr is asking a judge to rule that pensions and healthcare benefits for workers and retirees should be up for grabs. It's a total slap in the face for those current employees and retirees to look at these high salaries given to people to turn Detroit around while being asked to "sacrifice" more and more.
When do people really matter? Seems to me that a very select few are profitting from Detroits woes and that the people who should matter are being left out for the wolves.
Sell the damn artwork at the DIA, sell Belle Isle, sell the City Airport! Isn't there anyone out there who is looking out for any of us?
