divided loyalties

Michigan's loyalties are exclusively to the Great Lakes. All but a tiny patch or two of Michigan drains to the Lakes. But a consulting firm in Lansing is a subcontractor for the city of Waukesha, Wisconsin, which wants to divert Great Lakes water, and also a consultant for Nestle Corporation, which loves the loophole in the proposed Great Lakes agreements (comment deadline Monday) that permits exports of Great Lakes water as long as it's in bottles. The people of the state of Michigan have always shown their allegiance to the water. Let's hope they do so again.
