[
VIDEO] Reason.tv looks at Detroit's Operation Compliance
Operation Compliance began with the stated goal of shutting down 20
businesses a week. Since its inception, Operation Compliance has
resulted in the closure of 383 small businesses, with another 536 in the
"process of compliance," according to figures provided to Reason TV by
city officials.
But business owners say that Operation Compliance
unfairly targets small, struggling businesses in poor areas of town and
that the city's maze of regulations is nearly impossible to navigate,
with permit fees that are excessive and damaging to businesses running
on thin profit margins.
As if this great American city doesn't already have problems!
