Some Deal

Jack McHugh of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy has the goods on the deal that ended the brief government shutdown in Michigan. All politics aside, I'd like to think that I might be wrong in thinking this deal will only make Michigan's economy worse while doing nothing to resolve the budget problems facing the state, but I don't see it happening. Things are going to get worse for Michigan before they get better, and the least bad scenario is things getting bad enough quickly enough that Michigan has the sense to elect free-market, fiscal conservatives in the 2008 and 2010 elections.

Where's John Engler when you need him?
