About a half-dozen American cities have fallen into bankruptcy. In Michigan, at least four towns have been taken over by state appointed emergency managers as well. Late last month, the state took over another city, Allen Park, that found itself under financial water thanks to a Hollywood movie pitch - minus the happy ending. On Tuesday, Allen Park citizens will vote on whether or not to raise their own taxes to fill the multimillion-dollar hole in its budget left from the movie deal. Lifton's pitch: with the help of the city, he'd create Unity Studios, a $146 million television and movie production studio that would add 3,000 new jobs and make seven feature films its first year alone.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
