Michigan had about 55,000 fewer people in 2010 than in 2000, the only state to decline over those 10 years. (They paid people to bring rental trucks back to Michigan.)

Many have retired onto SS or gone onto disability.

Many ran out of unemployment.

Some are now welfare students.

Many are working for much less now.

But take a look. They are crowing about a 300,000 decrease in unemployment but when you subtract the actual increase in jobs of 80,000 to 100,000 they had a 2 to 1 increase in workers leaving the workforce to new jobs. And they call it a recovery. War with Eastasia, indeed. I really am sick of this crap. Fraud, lying, corruption, running rampant. Disgusting.
