Our readers sound off on Higher Ground, the Heidelberg Project and ills that plague Detroit
Published: August 10, 2011
The notion that we need a businessman to lead us is false. Their training and interest is in the bottom line, not the welfare of the community. I also think we've had enough of law school politicians. Those that run their partisan career to the end then take positions in the corporate world that has benefited from their legislation. We need leadership that comes from the working public. Someone who knows you must support an educational system for all. Someone that knows we need jobs in cities like Detroit more than we need to give tax breaks to those on top. Someone that will defend our standard of living and fight to prevent globalization from bringing us down and work to bring them up. We need leadership from the working community not the corporate community. —Alex Young, Utica
