Michigan potentially becoming the 24th such state to enact right to work laws.

"The push is also supported by Americans for Prosperity, an organization founded by energy executives Charles and David Koch that supports free markets and cutting back government. The group erected tents on the lawn of the Michigan Capitol to promote the bill."

Brotherly Mammon-worshiping multi-billionaire conservatives, with their manicured fingers reaching deep into state and federal government politics, and who fund non-profit organizations who publicly claim to be supposedly grassroots, such as the Tea Party...color me unsurprised.

Now all Snydley has to do is turn the state into a net federal tax recipient with a low cost of living like many if not most are in the South...but unfortunately that ain't likely gonna happen...ya'll. Michigan has long been near dead-last in states' recipient rank over the past 30-odd years, and near the top overall in contributions:

it's awful that Snyder - a Michigan alum, and more moderate Republican - would cave to the stupidity & greed at work pushing this sort of thing, as well as the more right leaning retards in the state legislature.
