In this case, her taking tax monies to invest in a private industry (nee' Solyndra?) is a mockery of the free market. Please allow me to choose where I spend/invest/donate my hard-earned money. It's not up to the State or Feds to make those choices. Individual choice in spending is what creates jobs for successful companies, not elected officials choosing for me. I do support NASW's defense of Senator Stabenow's education and experience. She was elected by her state to represent them. I respect her for her position, despite frequently disagreeing with her platform.
