Governor Rick Snyder's plans for Michigan Roads and Bridges

His plans got ok views from the west side of the state. But what people don't want is an increase in gas taxes. The governor is just trying to raise enough money to actually start the process on these Michigan roads. There are other options but people use gas to drive on the roads, so this seems to be a reasonable choice and sacrifices the citizens of Michigan might have to make.

  1. If building roads are a way to attract more people to MI, it could be worth it. But this hypothesis is not assured. Increasing taxes in a state where there's no increase in per capita and where people are losing jobs does not sound reasonable to me. But MI needs some kind of a plan to revive itself, so we could give it a try?
