Has 2011 been good for Michigan
I think the election of Rick Snyder has been absolutely
great for Michigan
The problem with giving Republicans absolute power is that
with their superior management of our economy they also bring their
fundamentalist, regressive, Dark Age thinking on social issues to the table.
Snyder does not appear to even care about social issues but he is bound by his
party affiliation to abide by their noxious positions and that is definitely
not good for Michigan
Snyder has been able to keep the unions in check by actually
dealing with them and not just hammering away at them as other governors have.
I hope he continues this strategy because in other states, they have marshaled
their re-call powers to attack their opponents or those that will not give them
what they demand. Some of that has happened in Michigan
I am hoping that the re-call law is changed to allow
re-calls for specific crimes while in office and not just for not doing what
some people feel they should have done; the current re-call regulation
disenfranchises the many people that did vote for the congressman or woman
being re-called.
Other than that, I am waiting for the new tax laws to take
effect on January 1 to see how my business does under the new legislation.
Many retirees are probably planning their political attack
on a governor that is now taxing their pensions…I agree with the governor that
seniors in Michigan have gotten away with
benefits no other state has and Michigan
We have a great state here; lets not screw it up as we have
in the past.
