    What's Price of Government status? (none / 0) (#13)
    by Wes Thorp on Tue Dec 09, 2008 at 01:32:06 PM EST
    A few years ago, the Michigan House of Representatives when the Republicans were in majority started to develop the state budget through a "Price of Government" process.

    If memory services me correctly, it was based on a book espousing principles to help the legislature make better and more informed decisions about spending.

    A couple of other states had used it successfully.  Michigan spent a bunch of money to implement it.

    And then it dropped out of sight.  There's been no mention and no buzz about it.

    I think former State Rep. Scott Hummell was its main advocate when he was House Approps chair.

    Anybody remember?  Did it just drop out of sight like a Sunday sermon?
