The country is in bad shape, but Detroit is especially hard hit with 12% unemployment. The 'wolverine' state and the city of Detroit needs a boost. Please help by voting 48201 (The Fabulous Fox Theatre) and bring Hugh Jackman and the Cast of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" to Detroit. Yes, you could vote for your city but please help Motown.

"Detroit is especially hard hit with 12% unemployment"

I take it you're a suburbanite. Unemployment in the City proper is 22%.

Naw, Yawp. See, "real America" always gets hit harder than us latte-sipping coastal elitists, no matter how much higher our unemployment rate is. Kinda like how the heartland suffered more than New York City on 9/11.

That's 22% in the City of Detroit, PG, not New York.

New York City's unemployment rate was a paltry 8.1% in February.
The entire state of Michigan hasn't seen an average unemployment rate that low in over a year. The 12% rate quoted in the original post was our (Michigan's) state unemployment rate for February.
