Here's the Left of Lansing "Monday Musing" for July 21, 2025.
Sandisk Company's decision to reverse course on a planned semiconductor mega site in Genesee County's Mundy Twp. is another harsh example how Trump's tariff scheme hurts Michigan's economy.
But it's not just Trump's tariff scheme that failed Michigan's working class. It's also Michigan's decades-long reliance on corporate welfare, and how it rarely results in a high number of good-paying jobs.
This is what happens when two horrible economic theories collide, and the working class is caught in the middle.
