Detroit Free Press Editorial Warning: Detroit Will Lose Another 25% of Its' Population If Nothing Changes

The Detroit Free Press has a stunning editorial on Detroit's decline if nothing changes:
Detroit would keep shrinking, down to about 530,000 people, spread ever more thinly across the same 139.5 square miles but pockmarked by more than 110,000 empty homes and buildings.

Michigan's per capita income, in the top 10 nationally for decades, would be the lowest of the 50 states.
A brave editorial from a newspaper.
