As soon as I hear "hosted by Business" I am no longer interested. Until the businesses of the state kick in tax dollars to pay for education instead of stealing from them for subsidies for their businesses, they should shut the heck up. Rip off kings.
I concur or in the words of Rush Limbaugh, "Ditto". Don't these people already have a right wing radical political think tank to push their point of view?
Locations across Michigan apparently means locations across southern Michigan. Please consider a location in the future so those in the Upper Peninsula would not have to drive 8 hours to attend.
