The Tuesday Heller Poll: Will Flint rebound from water crisis?
Best. Columnist. Ever.
Come Heller High Water I is the collection readers asked for, and includes columns that they wanted reprints of.
In true Heller style, topics cover everything from the craziness of having kids to tales from his U.P. days.
Come Heller High Water II is the smash hit follow-up to Come Heller High Water I. It includes everything from Andy's takes on modern life to conversations with his back home pal Moon Dimple, and much, much more.
Saving the World One Column at a Time is a bitingly funny look at the world through the eyes of this award-winning columnist. In it he takes on corporate crooks, Little League parents, tongue piercers, ketchup sinners and much, much more. A must-have for Heller fans.
Yes, it will recover. The worst that could happen, has happened. It is all up from here. With the help of the universities, the colleges, Mott Foundation, federal and state funds , concerned citizens and proper leadership, I see a much brighter future.
it’s a question of how long it will take, who’s left standing (hasn’t moved away), and how fit we feel once it’s over. We’ll be better, but strong….???….if it leads us to diversify our local economy as we’ve been crying out for decades, then, yeah, we’ll be great again, but in a different way…
Yes, but it will be a different city. Have already seen one lady on TV who said she has family in Kentucky and would leave her house in a heartbeat if someone would give her $5,000 for it. I think that’s going to happen, neighborhoods with a majority of vacant homes will be razed and more green spaces will take their place. The poor and minorities will, unfortunately, be pushed out of the city.
It’s going to take a lot of money and Flint now has it. Cities are going to need fixing all over America, hopefully this is just the beginning.
Hopefully when the dust settles someone will have a vision. There are always opportunities. Again hopefully without strings attached.
Recover? Recover to what? Flint will spend a hundred years in obscurity, with grass and moss growing over everything, including our children’s tombstones. Eventually, a lovely, happy village will grow up on the site. It may not even be called Flint. But, nice people will build there and live there. Eventually.
Love it. Possibly true, too.
