Michigan welcomes the rest of the country to life under GOP rule.
During the reign of Gov Snyder, a "JC", former CEO of Gateway Computer, he raised taxes on the working poor and retirees, cut funding that cities and counties used for local services, and appointed "emergency managers" to strip services from school districts and cities (the "Flint water crisis" was created by a Snyder appointed emergency manager) Meanwhile, the "JCs" of the state received two rounds of tax cuts.
The Flint water crisis was a public health crisis from 2014 to 2019 which involved the drinking water for the city of Flint, Michigan, being contaminated with lead and possibly Legionella bacteria.[2]
In April 2014, during a financial crisis, state-appointed emergency manager Darnell Earley changed Flint's water source from the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (sourced from Lake Huron and the Detroit River) to the Flint River.[7] Residents complained about the taste, smell, and appearance of the water. Officials failed to apply corrosion inhibitors to the water, which resulted in lead from aging pipes leaching into the water supply, exposing around 100,000 residents to elevated lead levels

Note, the water from the Flint River could have been made safe to drink, by treating it adequately. But treating it adequately would have cost money, and the Gov wanted that money to go to the "JCs" who held city of Flint bonds.
See how I deduced that "JCs" see Proles as expendable meat? They don't care if we have medical care, or housing, or food, or even water that's safe to drink, no matter how hard we work at our jobs.
