Watch this first (H/T to CS)
Then consider that aside from Snyder’s inaccurate representation of Dow family history, it wasn’t a government program that brought the best and the brightest from other countries to the United States, and to Michigan in particular. It was that immigrants could be left alone for the most part to ply a trade, offer a unique service or product, and be free to compete in open markets.
By skewing the field in some way to aid immigrants coming to Michigan, or to pay off ANY interest to settle here, the governor fails to acknowledge he must first steal from existing taxpayers who are made of immigrants and natives alike. He takes from some, to favor others in a bizarre preference game.
One that needs to stop.
