59. Why doesn't she pay Michigan back for all their costs then ?

Dec 2016

Stein is only paying a small portion of the costs in Michigan leaving taxpayers responsible for $$$millions. She is paying $900K while the estimated cost is expected to be $4 million.

Each individual county will be responsible for any costs above and beyond. I live in a small rural county. Really pleased it will cause my county to make cuts to services we all need.

Stein, is more than likely planning on walking away with a few million and sticking us with the bill
