As I pointed out earlier, there are two huge gaping flaws in the idea that I can drive my truck through (and trust me, I drive a very, very big truck).

First, you are creating a new bureaucracy for organizing and maintaining records on all Michigan Citizens for the express purpose of distributing entitlements as part of the "prebate" provision.

Yea! Another layer of government. Just what we need here in Michigan.

Second, the one thing that I will guarantee you that will come out of the "prebate", is that you will create a class of people expecting a regular check every month, and not wanting do anything to earn over and above that.

What to see first-hand what happens when you do that? Click here to find out.

Or even here.

The "prebate" may placate the progressives who whine about people paying too much in taxes.

It's a shame that the facts don't support that argument.
