These "people" are so out-of-touch with the votors, it's like they're a different species!
This is a rampant run toward top-down socialistically-modeled dictatorship. We "think" we vote on things, then the "real rulers" in Lansing make decisions without us!
What do you expect in a state that:
A.) decided to replace manufacturing with tourism, then tries to remove even more land from private hands,and takes the highway money for God knows what so actual tourists have no way to get here-and taxes gas highly to guarantee they wont come.
B.) Pretends the two or three generations of existing citizens are unimportant and have no need of jobs as they plan a future of "highly-educated think-tanks" consisting of the elites' chosen children that produce nothing but are supposedly supporting society on their big earnings as we off-shore everything
C.)Solves our in-state energy crisis by mandating higher electricity costs and rides their bike to work
D.) insists we are going to become the movie capitol of the world with huge tax breaks because Jenny "likes going to the movies with her kids"! Take a look at California's economy right now-sure isnt helping them much!And the similarities dont end there-both sets of legislators get waaay too much money for what they do-in some sort of inverse accounting for the damage they do.
E.) Does absolutely NOTHING to encourage small existing business or attract new business as "manufacturing is dirty -and not cool-and might endanger the environment" What a case of NIMBY!!
This is the most egregeous, most outstanding example of the elitist "let them eat cake" attitude I've ever seen on the part of any government! For once, the rest of the state has to band together and out-vote Lansing, Kazoo, Grand Rapids Ann Arbor and Detroit. We need to stop funding these self-serving cretins!
