Granholm Not Needed As Our Mechanic.

“Rebuilding Michigan’s Motor”, a town hall styled forum will air live on Wednesday, March 19 at 8:00pm on TV 7&4, and other NBC affiliates throughout Michigan.

IMNSHO… Michigan’s “Motor” the people, are capable, intelligent, and really don’t need a backyard mechanic toying around with what already runs. There are a couple other problems we have with the trusty ol’ Buick we call Michigan.

1. Stop brake torquing. With government plans to advance our technological base, and incentives promised those who would settle here to accelerate our economy, state government then needs to let the brake pedal up a little by lowering taxes and reducing government interference with operating a business. Let the wheels roll girl! You are burning the treads off.. soon we will have no traction!!!

2. Too much in the trunk. Prisons in this state consume an incredible amount of our resources and slow this baby down. Then, there is the health and human services budget. The biggest cost to the Michigan taxpayer. The heaviest part of the vehicle ought not be the air bag! We need to at least consider the policy suggestions made by some of the finer minds in our state.

3. Who is riding shotgun? Unions are. Schools, and state government really have to consider the value added by their union representation. Manufacturing unions have a lot riding on the success of our state, but they gotta stop poking you in the ribs while you are on the highway. Unions need to stop electing liberal spenders or Michigan needs to reduce its state sponsored union workforce. State government needs less overhead, and increased union involvement in government increases Michigan’s costs seriously.

4. Use good gas. For a little too long we have been hearing the story of CO2, and even as it has begun to recently receive the challenge that has been overdue, our governor is now insisting on state energy policy which will re monopolize that industry, and cost taxpayers more in the name of global warming. Way to dump sugar in the tank Jennie.

Michigan has not had a motor problem, but simply has had a few bad drivers. OK, maybe we need a little body work too..
