Oh, for Gods' sake! I made the mistake of looking at one of those "fattest cities in the U.S." articles and I see that Detroit has outstripped New Orleans to take the First Place Honor. Great. Fabulous. I searched the entire article twice and could find no documentation of criteria used or how this was determined. It couldn't've been done by doctor visits; our unemployment rate is too high -- not that many people are insured any longer. Can't blame me for it; I don't live in Detroit -- I'm in the "rich" 'burbs. :D
Sorry, that just flew all over me; what are articles of this nature supposed to do? Allow people in other cities to "tsk tsk!" themselves into a frenzy? Let Ann Arbor feel even more superior than they already do? Get federal money so Lansing can spend it on everything BUT making things better for Michigan as a whole?
Oh, who the fuck knows.
