according to tonights news, the state of Michigan is $900,000,000 in debt. that's nine hundred million. by june our state could go broke. Granholm is working out some kinda deal with both parties but yeah... this problem isn't new nor do I think it'll go away so quickly.

I <3 my life -_-

To fix this they're looking at cutting education big time and hiking up taxes.

I've been wanting to move out to LA for the longest time now. Michigan just keeps sinking. Sounds familiar... I digress, school might be a bitch come fall.

Ibme, any thoughts here?

so they're going to cultivate less intelligent people who probably aren't going to get into college, forcing them to get less paying jobs, and then tax them more? sounds like an A+ plan to me :D i see they really planned ahead for this one.

Screw California, move to oregon, where the grass is green, the forrests even greener, where it rains all the time and all the people are fat and depressed all the time. :D

Fuck yeah Oregon rules, highest brewpub to person ratio of any state! I have never been there, but I wouldn't mind living in Washington state (Seattle), its big brother.
