You know, maybe people should just move, if the situation in Michigan is that dire. I know it's hard to leave your family and comforts, blah blah blah, but if anyone remembers this thing called the Great Migration, a ton of people left the South to go to cities just like Detroit because of all of the jobs that were available.
It is difficult to move when you have nothing but your house and you can't sell that. It's not about family or comforts. Do you think anybody lives in Michigan for the comfort? Have you ever been here during January? LOL
