The national unemployment average is hovering around 4.5%, while Michigan’s is well over 6%—-and expected to rise to 7.3% in 2007. The governor’s solution? Raise taxes of course!
The Three Stooges Take On Lansing! By G-d, she had a plan! Gov. Jennifer Granholm touted she was going to reverse the disasterous financial direction that Michigan was going in.

I’ll bet she gives great microphone—-I’m just sayin’.
