So what do you call it when during an election year a Governor who's been doing a pretty lousy job overall promises a bounty of $2,000+ annually to each of her strongest supporters?
A "retention bonus".
The Detroit News: Whitmer to propose $2,000 annual retention bonuses for teachers, staff
Well, it's only $2.3 Billion of our tax money over 4 years - with per the article most to be spent -- per Whitmer's urging, not surprisingly in this (election) year.
Funny how that works.
Pretty much an outright payoff and bribery to some of her key supporters - the Michigan Educational Association and its members - with other people's money.
