This was my take on Detroit in 2007-
If Snake Pliskin passes on the sequel "Escape from Detroit", maybe they can get a special ops guy from one of those TV survival shows. He can do a night parachute drop into the city center with 50 Krugerrands, 10 cans of spam, and 1 anti-tank weapon. He can be extracted by Delta Force only if he survives 48 hours, and remains unsodomized.
Those were the good old days. It's worse now.
