Answer:
The Battle of Bunker Hill was fought on June 17, 1775, during the Siege of Boston in the early stages of the American Revolutionary War. The battle is named after Bunker Hill in Charlestown, Massachusetts, which was peripherally involved in the battle. It was the original objective of both the colonial and British troops, though the majority of combat took place on the adjacent hill which later became known as Breed's Hill.[5][6]
On June 13, 1775, the leaders of the colonial forces besieging Boston learned that the British were planning to send troops out from the city to fortify the unoccupied hills surrounding the city, which would give them control of Boston Harbor. In response, 1,200 colonial troops under the command of William Prescott stealthily occupied Bunker Hill and Breed's Hill. During the night, the colonists constructed a strong redoubt on Breed's Hill, as well as smaller fortified lines across the Charlestown Peninsula.[7]

Well there are both state taxes and federal taxes.
Federal income tax is collected by the US government and state income taxes are collected by individual state governments.
A significant factor was the general recession in the years following the 2007 housing bubble popping. People lost jobs, were struggling to pay bills, and naturally it was not an ideal time to purchase a vehicle.
Another significant factor was the surge in oil prices that came with the economic crisis, and the increased costs that automobile manufacturers faced due to the credit crunch that also came with the crisis. Since a lot of US manufacturers at the time were selling big SUV's, such as Hummers, as their most profitable products, the steep fall in demand hurt the industry immensely. At the time, US auto manufactures didn't offer many fuel-efficient, inexpensive alternatives to choose from.
The government chose to bail out major US automotive companies, providing large loans in order to help them stay solvent and keep their stock price from tanking. The results were generally positive. Big auto-manufacturers, apart from a couple mergers, survived and were given time to adapt the new market for fuel-efficient, less expensive vehicles.
I would tell the Michigan Economic Council to adapt ahead and to urge companies to diversify their product line. A major factor that automotive manufacturers can definitely take the blame for is their over-reliance on the sales of expensive SUV's, when oil prices and general market trends suggested that the future was not with these vehicles.
This means that little Davie is encouraged to stone, murder, his own mother. This contributes to the twisted irony of the situation.
