Distopian SciFi FTW

So, out in the great state of Michigan the new governor -- one Mr. Rick Snyder, a Republican -- has noticed that there's a Budget! Crisis! in his state! Sound familiar? And in order to be Fiscally Responsible, he has Bravely Leapt Into Action and is showing the way by advocating a new law that will not only break what few pitiful remnants of the unions that remain in these dark times, but which will also dissolve entire local governments.

You've gotta read this.

When I said it might be interesting to live in a science fiction novel? This was not the novel I had in mind.
