How do you get the Governor to respond to you? I am sick and tired of all these elected officials who are put into office that have to have their aides answer all their emails. We are putting aides in charge of determining what is important for the Governor to respond to? I thought we put the Governor in office so that he could represent us "We the people" I thought he wanted to hear our voices? Is there a way to insure that he responds to you?

 I know how you can ! First tell him how proud you are of him for growning out of pull-ups into a mans pair of pants.  His tax idea's and cuts to schools are a good start.

 I know how you can get Snyder to respond to you.  Tell him how proud of him you are that he has grown out of pull-ups and now wears a mans pair of pants.  Tell him thank you for kicking schools in the teeth and his tax plain was the best ever for Michigan and his business buddies.

 Where is Snyder should also be Where is Stabenow ? Where is Levin ? Where is Kildee? none a these officials answer the people directly.,and they avoid town hall meetings.If you talk to an aide and he/she does'nt share your view they get an attitude. I have rarely had an elected official answer a question directly they send a form letter telling me how good a job they are doing for me and the State of Michigan.The exception is my State Senator,even though I disagree with him most of the time he has called me and came to my home to discuss my questions.

Snyder is in an undisclosed location cooking up another way to tax the middle class and senior citizens of Michigan.

 No only you Gypys, only you !

Funny thing oldvet, I am not the only senior citizen in Michigan.

gypsy - kind of look at it like its a business and you have to put some of your own money back in to keep it running thats how you get to the 1% - RTB

You wouldn't have a business without tax payers money.  They keep you in business if you have a product to sell or give you big tax breaks you don't need.  Bring it on RTDB

 Your right about Snyder.  Next he will be taxing social security because he lost part of his progressive tax plan he put on pensions and higher income people.  The court ruled in his favor.  Snyder is punding his chest in front of his business buddies telling them " We did it, now let them eat turkey."

Frannie and Freddie,  my business's nor its employees have ever been propped up by govt intrusion, tax dollars or selfise union tactics if you dont like your job get another one .

Frannie:

 Frannie , please explain how taxpayer money is the reason someone has a business.

OH my !  Who buys your product?    The tax payers of Michigan are propping up your business thanks to Snyder's tax policy.  This is fun bring on some more.  I'm retired and I have nothing more to do but fight for the middle class and the poor.  We need to unionize your business and give your employees better pay and a safer work place to protect them from you.  Keep your stupid remarks coming.  I bet you don't even have a business.  You just want to act like a big little man.

 Good One! Gypsy

oldvet - one other thing i forgot to mention is a union cannot celebrate 75 years in business. - RTB

Frannie and Freddie - glad you have support for something as useless as it may be, get this straight the labor unions and their enslaving union methods, their actions that stiffle creativity in people and freedom are communist and socialist activities. Hows that hope and change working for you now.

 The people who buy products from me use their own money,not taxpayer money.

 As I have said before I sold my business in 2007 when the Dems took control of congress, I could see the hand writing on the wall.I now earn my income from Investments not from a pension. I am a middle class retiree.

My employees always made a very good wage and had a safe work place, I dare say you could not find a single former employee that would dispute the fact.

What remarks would you refer to as stupid ?

Oldvet - im not sure that frannie and freddie are straight on this they are probably using the word stupid because its the only other word in the union language. - Right to do business.
