It is double that in Michigan, on average--in some cities it is much higher. Standard & Poor dropped our state's credit rating again, yesterday. Now only California and Louisiana have worse credit ratings than the mitten.
If my state's gubmint does not begin to seriously consider "right to work" legislation, there won't be a job left here.
You are exactly correct.
The shape of things to come to CA. They’re nuts over there, with all their ‘freebies’ mandated by law.
You have all the right to work you need right here in South Ontario (AKA Michiganistan). That is to say the right to work part time for the socialist unions and the rest of the time for the socialist goobenor. If you don't like it you can go on the dole or leave.
