Weekly Poll: What Does Prosperity Mean To You?

Yesterday, we asked our followers and fans on social media to tell us what they think of when they hear the phrase “prosperity.” Here are our favorite two responses from Austin Gray and Charlie Kolean:

For Austin, he directly correlates prosperity with the American dream. You do not have to be a part of an elite class to be prosperous, but rather prosperity is within the reach of everyone. Together we can help each other become prosperous through holding the government accountable and fighting for Michigan families,.

Charlie’s answer, mimicking his inner Charlie Sheen, makes a good point. We all want to feel like winners, and be successful in life. It is hard to be successful and to “win” when there are regulations, taxes, laws, and a government that is trying to control your every decision. Let’s work together to ensure that we can “win” again in Michigan and become a more prosperous State.

If you missed this week’s question, let us know in the comments below how you define prosperity. Be on the lookout for next week’s question by following us on twitter @michprosperity or facebook at “Michigan Prosperity Project” so you never miss out on these fun opportunities.
