UP Of Michigan suffered from Federal closure of FIA Sawyer AFB - jobs gone. State prison closures began in Michigan for example Newberry empty. - jobs gone. Mining Industry is slow, many mines closed 50s - 70s, very few open - jobs gone. Timber industry - several paper mills closed nearby - jobs gone.
Oddly enough the young people of the UP of Michigan leave for jobs elsewhere.
Elderly are the predominant population. Second homes are very popular.
medical providers are leaving because patient have the inability to pay.
Michigan needs jobs.
Hopefully the US Congress can get it together.
Voting for Benishek
you got it, and not only that, when we try to mine or bring in energy plants, we have a bunch of outsiders, The Sierra Club and other whack jobs who muck up the works and kill our chances.
Stupak cozied up to the Sierra Club for 18 years.
Votin’ for Beni!
