My Why Why WHY's and Thoughts of the Week in the "D" and Elsewhere

A Weekly Post of My Thoughts and Question to Everyone of Why?  In the "D"
Why is the Michigan State Legislature forcing the Good People of Michigan to vote on a sales tax to repair the roads when they should of addressed this issue on their own?
Why do some elected City Officials in Detroit think they deserve a raise when the City just came out of bankruptcy  and many took pay cuts and reductions to their pensions?
Why are so many bridges and underpasses in such bad shape and yet the State is doing very little to fix them in an urgent manner?
Why does the State of Michigan want to bring a persons religious preference into the decision making process of adoption?
Why does a Man who was a Veteran have to die in a cold house because the heat was shutoff and yet 2 or more agencies refused to help get the heat turned back on? 
Why does it take a story of a man who walked over 26 miles a day to and from work to get people riled up over the poor and inept Bus System in Metro Detroit that has been like this for decades and even worse nothing is happening to address this?
Why is it that U of M Fraternities and Sororities can cause hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages to resorts in Northern Michigan and no criminal charges for malicious destruction of property or any other charges are filed?
Why is it all these beautiful renovated properties in Detroit are so high priced as condos and apartments and lofts that hard working middle class can't afford to live in them?  Where is all the so called affordable housing promised in the City of Detroit and who figured out the cost of what affordable housing really is?
Why is there not a more concentrated effort in the City of Detroit to really address the issues of the Homeless, lack of Shelters, feeding the poor and hungry? What about using some of the abandoned buildings all over the City to help?
Why does the State of Michigan continue to allow people to carry weapons onto and into schools? Change the rules and allow People to carry open arms but just not into Schools and most Public Places.

Elsewhere:
Why can't the DNC and GOP play well together and try, just try to find common ground on anything?
Why do We the People of this great Nation keep allowing these lawmakers to tell us what they are going to do for us instead of them listening to what we want and not what their Party wants for us?
Why do all the Presidential Candidates never lay out a true platform agenda and where their stand on all the issues at hand and even more so why do We, the People, continue to accept from the Parties a common no response answer?
Why do We continue to jeopardize our Nations security by not making our borders more secure?
Why are Billions of our tax dollars being wasted by giving out benefits to people who have been dead for years and sometimes decades and also where we say someone is deceased when they are alive and yet these People have to suffer as a mistake is made over and over and over and these People cannot get at their assets because they have been frozen or seized?
Why do we not address the problems of hunger, homelessness, mental illness here at Home first and then help other Nations out with their needs? When did we become a Nation of helping others before We help our own?
Why do we give Hundreds of Millions of dollars in tax break to the oil companies when they charge us the People for any disruption in oil, when their refineries go down, etc.. when there oil companies make Billions a quarter in profits? Other businesses must absorb these costs by themselves.
Why do the lawmakers not ask us the People what We want in regards to the Keystone pipeline and come clean with all the data and information so we have an honest and clear picture of all the pros and cons?
Why do we as a Nation continue to allow US Companies to use loopholes to not pay their fair share of taxes owed to the US Government?
Why do the Veterans of this great Country continue to have to wait for healthcare or their appointments get pushed off for months and months and why do they not have the best health care available immediately after they have served and given their lives for the USA?
Why is it alright for Candidates and Lawmakers to use misleading and deceptive ads against others or against propositions to serve their own purpose? This ads should have to be honest and truthful.
