Michigan is a Business Contender Again

Here's a good article for those who are actually interested in Michigan's recovery.

Since the recession ended in 2009, Michigan has sported the nation’s sixth-highest job growth rate at more than 6 percent. The auto industry’s resurgence has been a key factor in that turnaround, but also key is Michigan’s improving economic climate as Gov. Rick Snyder and a Republican Legislature have stabilized the state’s budget, improved its bond rating and made Michigan a right-to-work state.

From The Detroit News: http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20131021/OPINION01/310210006#ixzz2iZx6wzuP

I think the original post was a tad too supportive of the Detroit News ' article without realizing it's the republican propaganda newspaper in Detroit. Let's keep politics out of this. Detroit is starting to come around, but it's due to the auto recovery ... Which is a macroeconomic issue, not anything a state politician has done or not done. It has nothing to do with "right-to-work" or anything else Snyder has done to the people of Michigan.
