I just donated to a political campaign for the first time in my life — despite being low income. That donation was to the Bernie Sanders campaign.
We need to start protecting our kids feeding them, safe school, parity in schools, stop cutting benefits to woman and children and much much more.
Here in Michigan we have an evil governor straight out of the villains in 60s cartoons: Gov. Rick ‘Snidely Whiplash’ Snyder.
He allowed the poisoning of children in many communities. That’s plain evil.
Here in northern Michigan the state tried to hide the fact they had destroyed the deer herd — and it won’t recover for many many years to come. They sold hunting licenses like drunken sailors knowing the Upper Peninsula (U.P.) deer herd population had plummeted to less than 80,000 deer instead of the comfortable herd of like before at 250,000.
In an attempt to hide their blunder, he ordered the DNR to lie about the reason for starting a controversial wolf hunt. Wolves have zero intrinsic value like fur and as meat — and the state paid millions of dollars for each wolf to be reintroduced a couple decades ago. I knew this did not make sense.
Well in addition to minor predation concerns, one wolf can stress out 20 deer a day during a chase through heavy snow etc.
Gov. Snyder will be known as the evil politician who made sure sulfide mining came to the U.P. — and fracking is next — along with a ton of mines. The first mine is not worth the small number of jobs created — and may cave into the only stream that contain a type of natural brook trout. Kennecott Mining dumped the mine on a Canadian company and ran for cover after a campaign to stop the mine.
