Michigan Kisses Democracy Goodbye
While media attention has been focussed on the popular uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrein, Yemen, and Libya, of people demanding greater control over their own lives and an end to autocratic rule by a few individuals, the Republicans in Michigan have moved in the opposite direction – stripping democratic governance from its citizens and imposing a dictatorship.

Michigan introduces Financial Martial Law
The Republican Governor of Michigan, Rick Snyder, has steered through a bill that allows him to dissolve the elected governments of Michigan’s towns and cities, and replacie them with his own nominees who will have the power to eliminate services, merge or eliminate school boards, and lay off or renegotiate unionized public employees without recourse. These ‘managers’ will not be accountable to the electorate but will answer only to the Governor, (and there will be no limit to the salary they may draw)
Hhmm, goodbye democracy in Michigan and hello to the patronage and graft (corruption) more normally seen in the likes of Iraq and Afghanistan
