Born and raised in Michigan, two degrees from UM. Sorry, but I think the state is a hopeless case. The left-wing nuts may all be confined to the Detroit/Flint axis, but they’re in the majority and always will be. Get out of there and don’t look back. We did, and have never had any regrets. Pretty state, nice people, but owned and operated by union thugs.
And yet, in Michigan we have a Republican governor, Repubs hold the Senate 26-12, and the House 64-46.
They could pass Right to Work tomorrow if they wanted.
