Yes Downtown needs another sports bar! They need another bank, coffee shop, burger joint, clothing store, taco stand, post office, Kinkos, and whatever else wants to open! Detroit needs businesses, tax revenue, occupied buildings, paid rents, and jobs. Any business that wants to come and set up shop needs to be welcomed at this point. This is not some libertarian-fantasy argument here, this is just a practical matter of making the city a viable place to live and do business. You don't have to actually go to the place. Plus, a national chain setting up shop is a huge "OK" sign to other potential investors and businesses that were on the fence. - Anon [Comment of the Day]
