The Long Slide Downward...

... is accelerating.
LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Some Michigan counties have turned a few once-paved rural roads back to gravel to save money.

More than 20 of the state's 83 counties have reverted deteriorating paved roads to gravel in the last few years, according to the County Road Association of Michigan. The counties are struggling with their budgets because tax revenues have declined in the lingering recession.
Another one of those "unanticipated consequences" the government is so famous for not seeing. See where this is happening? Michigan.

Once a powerhouse of industry, Michigan is now the poster child for the federal governments disastrous trade policies, the wholesale giving away of our industries to foreign competitors, and the bribe-taking habits of our esteemed Congress and its temple monkeys who fellate business tycoons on a daily basis.

Jobs, businesses and industries go away... tax base collapses.

One more result: Gravel roads.

It always amazes me to repeatedly see how those those bribe-grasping temple monkeys in Washington could not see how giving away millions and millions of jobs and how allowing thousands and thousands of American factories and industries to collapse would result in anything other than the economic upheaval we are witnessing.

Obama and Congress just sold Crysler to Fiat and the Union bosses. Who will they sell Chevy to? What does it take to wake Americans up?

This recent "recovery" of the stock market? Don't let that fool you. Our collapsing eeconomy will ultimately take its legs out completely.
