*shakes head* Michigan is screwed.
Off topic: why should one group be given preference just because of race?

On topic: You really want to see a fucked up ballot initiative that passed? CO passed a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, not just a law, that states that the min wage be set to 6.85 starting in Jan and then adjusted every year based on economic indicators of the two largest cities in the state. Goodbye CO jobs. Hoped you enjoyed your stay
