Like we needed more bad news from Detroit

...comes this headline from today's Det Freep: Metro Detroit takes lead on U.S. population loss rankings:

Detroit lost more than three times as many people as any other metro area in 2006 and 2007, according to Census Bureau estimates to be released today. Its population declined more than 27,300. <SNIP>

Good thing we have Granholm and the MI House Dems to thank for  a higher income and corporate tax rate to off-set the loss of tax base!!!

In case you are keeping score at home, the Granholm-Democrat tax increase has taken out more than $601 MILLION in new taxes from the pockets of Michigan families and businesses since Oct. 1, 2007.
