JANUARY THAW OR FREEZE?

Interesting how the spin doctor extraordinaire spun 2011. Increase in jobs-duhh the auto industry picked up (partly based on bailouts)opposed by most "r"'s. Paid down some of the unfunded liability-- ahh on the backs of public workers. Apparently promises, contracts mean nothing. Goal posts can be changed at will. Tax surplus gained upon the backs of seniors, the poor and public workers again, including public safety.

Support for an educated workforce being the answer for Michigan while taking away funding from both K-12 and Universities. But that's ok the formula is, if you take away money and incentives for good teachers and public workers to take jobs in the public sector, you will get a good system and the tax payer will receive better service from those who just "called it in" or flunked or cheated their way to their degrees. Explain the logic of that. As far as I know you get what you pay for.

Is there anyone we haven't made happy yet? It's ok though that 1.2 Billion tax cut for business will result in jobs. Would it have been too much to hold business to that scenario before raising taxes on everyone else? Who's the tax and spend group? I keep getting it confused.

Christmas is over but apparently Snyder-ly Whiplash is alive and well and assuming everybody is happy. Beware folks, the same thing could happen on the national scene if we don't take care. Want another "business person" running the US of A? Just saying.
