O utlook – We were ranked 25^th in the country

U nemployment Loans – We were ranked 27^th in the country

T otal Debt Including Pensions – We were ranked 42^nd in the country

This is not a healthy ranking for the State of Michigan, but how do we go about turning this POUT upside down?  Here are some ideas:
