Walberg will attempt to reclaim House seat lost to current Rep. Mark Schauer

Obviously Mr. Walberg has overlooked the fact that voters wanted change which is why we elected Mark Schauer.  It is an outrage that right-wingers continue to raise the issue of taxes in their argument for things to stay the same and get worse!  Taxes are what pay for the commons - the things we all benefit from - roads, bridges, police, schools, fire department, etc.........Those who are fortunate enough to be doing well in this economy are doing so because the average person, including those who are not doing well, have supported the services or products they provide!  It is only right that they give something back, that being higher taxes for the wealthy, and lower taxes for the rest of us.  In this time of crises, all economic experts, including Nobel prize winner Paul Krugman, have said we are going to have to spend more money in order to turn the economy around - that means locally as well as globally.   Let's give Representative Schauer a chance to prove he stands for change before we join a campaign to turn power back over to those who got us into this mess in the first place such as Tim Walberg! 

I thought Walberg sounded fake when he was in office, and I think he sounds fake when he's out of office too.  

His comments remind me of the situation with the roads in Raisin Twp, which prides itself on low taxes (although people still complain about them).   Yeah, great, you have lower taxes than in the city of Tecumseh, but at least our roads don't suck (Raisin Ctr. south of Sutton or Sutton east of Rogers, for example)

Michigan's where it's at b/c the Big 3 sold lousy cars for way too long and too many people are trained for jobs that have left and aren't coming back.  It could be Granholm, DeVos, or God at the helm and we'd still be in the same spot.
