MILE MARKERS ON THE ROAD TO DETROIT:

LOL. Your comparison between these two cities is very significant.
Detroit's main industry of automotive production was destroyed and left the town hollowed out. The same thing is happening with Los Angeles.
The entertainment business has been steadily drained from this place… https://t.co/nLaj4iL2PF

Bateman’s tweet concludes, “The entertainment business has been steadily drained from this place for at least a decade. LA will soon be hollowed out just like Detroit. It is becoming just sprawling city with no central industry at all.”
