Hiroshima vs Detroit Sixty-Six Years Later

 Here's an interesting, eye-opening, but sad comparison for you.

We all know that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed in August 1945 after the explosion of atomic bombs.

However, we know little about the progress made by the people of that land during the past 65 years.

Here are photos of Hiroshima before and 66 years after that horrible day.

 

Here's an odd question. What has caused more long term destruction - the Atomic bomb, or uncontrolled Government Welfare programs created to buy the votes of those who want someone to take care of them?

BTW, Japan does not have a welfare system.

Here are photos of Detroit 65 years AFTER the same day.

These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:

  1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
  2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
  3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
  4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
  5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

UPDATE:

Detroit Is In Worse Shape Than I Thought
