where has the old Flint gone?

We lived n Flint for over 50 years and now due to the bad economy and the poor job market we have left. I wish we could still be there but you can't live somewhere that there is no hope of future jobs or growth of the economy. We left Flint 2 years ago and we put our house on the market then and it is still on the market and we lived in one of the neighborhood where the houses never stayed on the market for more that a couple of months, now we are going on 2 years and still no one is interested in our house or any other house in the neigborhood. We try to go back about 2 times each year to see the house and friends we left behind and each time it just seems to get worse. When is the city government and the people of Flint gonig to realise that they need to get the city back on the right track, and that means they need to rely on themselves and not GM!!!! there is more out there in the real world that does not revolve around Generous Motors.
I have some of my best growing up memories in Flint and the surrounding area and it hurt me to see all of that lost in the economic dismay that the current government and people are letting happen there today.
Wake up Flint or you WILL become the next Ghost town.
