Earth to the WaPo and Michigan's Governor

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Apparently, as though lost on some cloud - blocked from seeing reality right in front of their noses, both the Washington Post and Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm are stumped: the governor is trying so hard (tax credits, Super Bowl ticket giveaways, and more!) and there are so many government-directed programs to create jobs in Michigan, yet none of it is working.

However, as Jennifer Rubin points out, there is a lesson to be learned (and the answer is obvious):

... if your tax, spending, labor, and regulatory policies are anti-employer, you are going to lose jobs no matter how energetic and attractive your chief executive is. There's a lesson there for the other 49 states.
Employers are not stupid. They know they need an employer-friendly environment to create jobs and operate profitably (despite what Michael Moore and the liberal democrats want us to believe - it's not a sin to make money - and it keeps businesses alive to provide the jobs)
