Michael Barone looks at Michigan:

Voters in my home state seem to have realized that the solution to joblessness is not to plunder the private sector, but to nurture it.

Michigan was once the center of manufacturing in the U.S. But the unions and state government got greedy and if they didn't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs, they drove it out of the state. They got a bailout from the taxpayers, but they charged it on our credit. When other mismanaged states show up with their hands out to the next Congress, I hope the new majority says "Talk to the hand."
