    This is so wrong. It is not fair to other competitors who employ people in America. And it is not the states job to manipulate sales of product in one way or another. You could even consider this racist. These are all considered American made; there not, all the engines castings and heads are formed in Mexico. Then they are shipped here to be machined. Not to mention other parts assembled in Mexico.   Every car should get the tax break. Is this a way of saying bring your jobs to Michigan? NO How about telling the three you’re giving sale rebate to, to bring back the jobs to Michigan. And whose business is it anyway. Did we elect sales personal for the big 3. If you going to give tax break, give it to the people who elected you. How about cutting sales tax at the gas pumps and taxes taken from there paychecks. Maybe then they will buy one of  your top campaign contributors car.

     I'm not a fan of protectionism, BUT, until out Federal government stops allowing other nations to DUMP their government subsidized products on our markets each state should take precautions to protect its citizens.
