Brilliant. Increased property taxes should really help turn the state around. I'm sure that this will be very popular. Actually, this could be great. I file for a local taxing district which consists of my parcel only. I vote to add taxes to my property for the purpose of fixing my eye-sore driveway...

Mr. Salad, WORKER'S Comp (not Workmens Comp) has everything to do with both the U.S. Constitution and the Michigan Constitution. The Seventh Amendment of the former and Section 14 of the latter both guarantee a trial by jury for anyone seeking monetary damages. Worker's Comp denies those rights...

You couldn't be more mistaken, Tater. This legislation affects anyone that files a claim for a work-related injury or ilness, not just those that are trying to scam the system. First of all, the taxpayer's don't pay ANYTHING to injured workers; the Employers, or more often, their insurance...

Absolutely not! keep your Mutt at home - its not your kid no matter how you dress it up. How many times have you seen a dog in a parked car while the owner is shopping.

Who will monitor these plants, how much land will be used for these plants, who would possibly want to...

I am a School Bus Driver. It's a wonderful job. We have a familiar relationship with students and their parents. This bill would take that away. We don;t make that much money. Making ends meet on our wages is very difficult. If faced with what this bill will mean for our jobs, many of us will have...

This has got to be one of the most insane pieces of legislation to come out of our legislature in a long time. Well maybe not in a long time but this one is at the top of the list..

Just how do you propose to enforce this? As a huge percentage of pallet-loaded freight originates in other states, how to you propose making shippers in other states liable for improper pallets? Looks to me like this type of regulation correctly falls under Interstate Commerce at the federal level and...
