Did you know that each year a state department MUST spend its entire budget? If it does not spend the entire amount, then there will be cuts to its budget next year! So ALL of the department heads make sure they spend every dollar or else it may mean less to spend next year. This is government waste at its best. What we need is tightening of belts on government spending. I strongly disagree with cutting education spending. However, currently we are teaching our children a bunch of theories that have been proven untrue. Darwin’s evolution theory is just one example of many. Darwin himself disproves his own theories in the last chapters of his book on evolution. Never in history has a dog given birth to a cat or a pig or anything other than a dog! The Bible tells us where all the animals came from - GOD. We need God back in schools and back in government. If you are a Christian working for the government, please bring God with you to work no matter what any one else tells you to do. God will thank you even if no one else does. And don't we all want God's affection and blessings in our lives. If we turn away from God then what do we turn toward? The opposite of God is His enemy - Satan. You can not serve two gods. This is truth and the New Testament says so. Read it for yourselves if you do not believe me. Remember, ignorance is a choice not to search for truth.

Cutting these areas precisely at a time where foundations and individual donors are strapped for cash will undoubtedly lead to a reduction in the services provided by / quality of these institutions. Let's not nickel and dime Michigans citizens who are seeking a more elevated existence. Preserve Arts and Environmental funding today!
