    Fed buying treasuries.... question

    Why is Michigan not bankrupt with double digit unemployment?

    Oakland county in one of the wealthiest in the country - still. There are 2 billion USD worth of paychecks issued in the detroit-metro area every two weeks as of the 4Q08. It's not likely to happen - not impossible, but not likely.
