It looks like our law makers have been pretty busy lately. I am actually intrigued to see that they are thinking about modify the taxing again and again until we won't be able to see their trick anymore. There's always a trick. The only way that could make me agree with paying higher taxes is if part of my taxes is distributed to charity, I learned about my options from John Studzinski.

We cannot raise income taxes at all here. I am not sure what they are thinking here. So many other options then this. I hope they go the other route here. f1 tours

Now that there is no single business tax, no michigan business tax, and now grocery stores do not have to mark their items; will we see grocery prices go down? I will be watching. Will businesses like II Stanley and Denso start hiring off the street instead of using temp agencies? Will we see wages go up? I do not see how taxes solve our problems. We need to make things in Michigan again. I've lost two jobs due to outsourcing. One was outsourced to Mexico and now this one to privatization. I'm not getting any younger and at my age do not wish to go into 20K debt to get another degree. I will be watching and I always turn out to VOTE!
