find 30% to cut in the first 20 minutes of looking then we need to find someone who can.
You say "These cuts will cost us more in the long run", I say bull. The only thing you are worried about losing are votes.

2) Wrong [by Anonymous Citizen on August 27, 2007]
"the money that is in the 21st Century Jobs Fund is money that we need to maintain this competitiveness with other states."

Cut taxes in Michigan and watch the business start to fill the state. You can't buy jobs with our tax dollars. It never works long term. Cutting taxes and regulations will jump start our economy in short order.
