Michigan and Canada

Michigan needs money/we take Canadian trash

Michigan needs money/we give our waterways to Canada

Michigan needs money/we take KOCH coal trash and the LEAVE it next to fresh water waterways-WTF???

Michigan needs money for corporations/we give tax breaks to Canada and multinational corporations

Michigan elites want more money/we give them our eco system

This is no longer a state of democracy in Michigan-we are now the China of the US

And what do the citizens get? Not a goddamn fucking thing except threats to raise gas taxes by 14 cents when we already have some of the priciest gas in the country.
