I'm curious to see if any other state governors have the ability to do the above or if what Snyder wants is just totally out there. Another thing to note, just because he would have the means, it doesn't mean he has the intent. I doubt Snyder will disincorporate city after city. It would just lead to more shit on his plate. I know that since you're a democrat, Snyder is probably public enemy #1 to you right now but I still think it's a little early to be foaming at the mouth over this.
