Michigan, Pennsylvania and Illinois

Is Michigan that bad? Consider other states such as Pennsylvania who partial shut down their government. They could not agree on a budget plan and they have a $650 million surplus (article). Michigan has a deficit and agreed on a budget plan. Well not really, they agreed to barrow money and figure the problem out later.
In addition to Pennsylvania, Republicans in Illinois are trying to impeach their governor (article). Yes impeach, Illinois law permits impeachment of governors.
So in my opinion, Michigan is still worse. Unfortunately, Michigan suffers from both of these problems. A legislature that cannot agree and a governor who cannot lead

You got that right. I've had to turn off 1240 AM because I'm tired of hearing about it. Make the needed cuts and get on with it. Oh yeah, and stop pointing fingers Jen!
I dont really need to say what i think, but I will mention how the congress is also at fault here. Instead of doing something they are just taking the commands of our governor. (dems at least)
