    Gee, we have Republicans who want to socialize the energy business in Michigan:

    2008 Senate Bill 1164, introduced by Sens. Roger Kahn, Wayne Kuipers, Randy Richardville, John Pappageorge, Jason Allen, Cameron Brown, Bill Hardiman, to authorize the creation of a government "clean energy authority" with extensive powers, including the power to borrow money, so it can explore, develop or acquire oil, gas, and mineral resources and alternative and renewable energy facilities; develop or acquire facilities to capture or sequester greenhouse gases, and gasifiers; engage in enhanced oil recovery from state lands using captured greenhouse gases; promote alternative and renewable energy facilities in Michigan; provide loan guarantees and other types of subsidies to particular individuals or firms engaging in related activities; and more. (Dem Jim Barcia is also a sponsor.)

    . . . and Dems who want to impair private contracts and bankrupt mortgage lenders:

    2008 House Bill 5857, introduced by Rep. Shanelle Jackson, to require courts to prohibit the foreclosure of a residential mortgage or land contract for one year if the borrower requests it, notwithstanding the provisions of any contract between the lender and borrower, or any obligations of the lender which may be dependent on the revenue from loan repayments or proceeds from the foreclosure and sale of the property.

    Our governor's name is not Hugo, though. (It's Evita.)
