Tax and Spend D’rat. L
As bad for MI as Little Jenny Canuck was.
She’s crapped out for (unions) fixing the bloody roads.
Now wants more for pubic school socialist indoctrinators.

There go the property taxes.

When I lived in Michigan our supposedly Republican Governor Engler cut a deal. A 50% increase in the state sales tax, in exchange for a reduction in property taxes.

We got the sales tax increase. The property taxes however just kept going up and up.

NEVER trust any deal with a Democrat.

Luckily both houses of the Michigan legislature are Republican controlled. Her speech is a waste of time.

I wonder if she’s gonna breathlessly whisper “In five years, you’re gonna be blown away” like the Governess before her, Jenny Grandstand said?

Well, she was right. I lost my 18 year job. As my family drove out of Michigan with all of our stuff in a moving van, I had big signs tapes to the back of the cars that read “Another Michigan family blown away. Thanks Jenny.”
