They pretend as though they care,these same people are the types that will literally step over a homeless person on sleeping outside on the street.

I am from Ann Arbor and the same old complaining here. Michiganders always complain, but never hit the target on what is really wrong right now with Michigan. And you can't expect someone to work 24 hrs. a day until it is fixed like the lady said. No, the problem with Michigan is our transplant Canadian Socialist governor, Democrats who do nothing but raise taxes & drive business out, and the UAW who expects companies to be their mommies & daddies until they die. Entitlement mentality.

things arent bad here people still live the same and do the same things

[bubbleman7321]

that sucked... how about interviewing someone who's not lower class or democrat...o wait that is all of ann arbor, thats why the city sucks. dont raise taxes, cut b.s. programs

[kaliyuta]

@bubbleman7321 "lower class or democrat".interesting how you must think those two are the same.I'd like to know what you think is "lower class" is this based on lifestyle or net worth? I mean what is it?

[cujothekitten]

Man... I used to live in Brighton Michigan. Sounds like things are really rough there.

Michigan really needs to start working on tech industry instead of manufacturing. It's pretty clear that the auto industry is taking a dump.

Good luck everyone.

[lostinseganet]

[immablackguylovinbbw]

[JamZ102]

i gotta question are they goin 2 close every school in michigan ?

[TboyKyle88]

all state schools close close if they don't get it sorted out as of midnight. The city run public schools will remain open untill they run out of money. I know the public schools in my city have enough money to stay open for two more weeks.

My father is a injured Vet. I wonder will a state shutdown affect his social security checks.

[ManufacturedThoughts]

Nope, Social Security is Federal and not State controlled.

[Loakum]

Thanks for answering my question with heathcare being so expensive I feared that any interuption of his social security benefits could be tragic. It just infuriates all those millions of dollars spent to host the Baseball Allstar games, and Tne NFL Superbowl, and look at where we're at today!
