Kudos to former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm. Finally, a politician (at least a former one) who makes the obvious point: local governments who give tax breaks to bring jobs to their locales don’t create jobs, they just move jobs from one state to another and in the process destroy the infrastructure that actually creates jobs […]

© Tom Tomorrow The media seems to be slowly waking up to the fact that they can’t just ignore the Wall Street Protestors. So they are making fun of them or insulting them instead.
