Michigan State Parks Closing?

[dhe9]

well let me see, now that we are talking politics. raising taxes on a population that has an unemployment rate of 7.5% seems rather stoopid.

and anyway what will the do nothing politicians do in another 30 days but wring their hands, get red faced and huff and puff about the other party.

here is a novel idea, cut the welfare. too mean you say? then legalize marijuana, tax it, regulate it and control it. use the money to help balance the budget and then use the rest for drug education and treatment. yes, i know far fetched but the state could probably put 1 billion dollars per year into their coffers.

now i do not use drugs and don't even drink booze but i do know failed policies and michigan has many.

recall jenny, california recalled grey!

good luck from a former michigander!

last poll was something like 93% were dissatisfied with the tax hike solution to our MI budget crisis...

i can't believe there isn't more steam behind the recall effort...

i think the difference is, californians know how to get things done

well i will tell you this, we in the once great golden state have our own problems and you can bet on that. the last good thing coming out of the state capitol was recalling our bozo (sorry bozo) govenor grey davis.

not sure if the mods will canx this but i will tell you this, we are over run with illegals from who knows where and while we are on airstreaming it will cost one $30.00 to stay in a state park.

sigh,
