And on June 29, 2007, a day after voting for the proposal, then-state Rep. Mike Nofs, R-Battle Creek, told the Battle Creek Enquirer: "In any business tax there will be some winners and some losers, but with this plan, there are more winners." (Nofs is now a member of the Michigan Senate.)

Did not one of these topics and all the efforts of Wendy Day not mean one thing?  At this point, MY gut says the Proos tag team is dangerous.  <cough>Obama's associations lesson<cough>

As for the eeeeeevils of being held to a competency standard to be titled a carpenter or carpentry contractor on commercial buildings... where does that apply to a "handy man" status?  I don't see standards being a problem for those lending, owning or any of us poor saps that may enter those "commercial structures".
