Sent to Michigan Economic Development Commission on April 19, 2011
Dear Sirs:
According to news reports, the governor of Michigan has been given the power to appoint managers who may declare a city a failed municipality and then eviscerate the power of the elected officials. The reports say this has already been done in Benton Harbor. I find this granting of dictatorial power most inappropriate. There are other ways to handle a problem of this kind. Thus, as a life-long ardent supporter of the American system of government I must stand up for our way of life by boycotting all products made in Michigan. I will be advising my friends via phone call, letter, and Internet of my decision.
As a former resident of Michigan this decision is most painful and I don't take it lightly. However, I cannot abide any assaults on our democratic form of government. Thus, I feel good about my decision to boycott products of Michigan. Naturally, should this law be over-turned I will be glad to end my boycott and will advise my friends to do the same.
