    Rex, Great points and I am (none / 0) (#14)

    glad you brought them up.  #1.  Working stiffs shouldn't have to see an net increase in their taxation.  I don't want them paying 4.35% income tax plus the tax on food.  The reduction of income tax, hopefully, will we a "wash" for them.  #2.  A sales tax on food is the surest way to collect taxes from criminal enterprizes, gamblers, cash-only businesses, illegal aliens, and others not pulling the wagon.  
    #3.  I don't necessarily see a problem with taxing all purchases except that the tax is "hidden" from the purchaser of the product or service and will make it easier for the State to raise the hidden tax latter down the line instead of cutting unnecessary programs or services.  #4.  Does Michigan Works receive money from the State?  If so, cut it off completely!  Throwing money at training for jobs that don't exist is counter productive.  

    Just an aside, I don't like the pre-bate.  We are all in this thing together and we all have to work to get ourselves out of this.
