The last thing I'm going to say on the topic is that my intent wasn't to make this a political dicussion but was simply expressing my frustration at the situation. It's been a game of kick the can and Whitmer is the one left holding the bag. It is ironic that she campained on infrastructure issues though (mostly the roads).
There is so much blame here for all parties involved that it is ridicilous. And, Brent is correct. It's not the mussels fault. I've lived in mid-Michigan for more of my life than I wish I had. The reality is that I remember battles going on over this dam since the 70's. I'm pretty sure they were going on before then but I was just too young to care or remember. Once article link doesn't do the situation justice but I felt it did speak to the guilt of all parties to one degree or another. It's just sad that this is what we have come to. A once mighty state known as a manufacturing powerhouse reduced to this. It's just sad. I have friends that lost lake front property and I have friends that now have lake front property though they wish otherwise. On the bright side, I'm betting there will be some really nice former lake front houses going up for sale real cheap in the next couple years. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Former lake bed might be good for mud boggin' and a great snowmobile drag strip in the winters. The only lesson I've learned is that it's never a good idea to buy a house in a flood plain down stream of a dam or even a lake house that depends on a dam to create the lake (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
