From the "No Kidding" Files

The Detroit Free Press seemed shocked. The headline reads "Michiganders favor cuts over taxes."


Michiganders think the state government's financial crisis should be fixed mostly without raising taxes, The Detroit Free Press-Local 4 Michigan Poll found.

Nearly two-thirds -- 64% -- would prefer to rely mostly on spending cuts to solve the state's budget problems.


Gee, with our "booming" economy (booming as in blowing up, not the good type of booming), Ford losing $12 billion last year, why can't we expect the government to face up to the fact that the golden goose is comatose and not laying anymore golden eggs?
