The burdens and additional paperwork small business will face if the internet sales tax is enacted might mean nothing to the Walmarts or other big box houses which have a nexus in each and every state.  However, a small operation that does business on the internet and ALREADY faces a shipping obstacle the box houses can overcome with trucking logistics, will be forced into near impossible operating conditions.  There might be other solutions, but no-one has come close to the right ones yet.

There are some legislators that serve their (well funded) masters well.

Tax Tyrants?

Click on their images and call them to ask "why would they want to hurt Small Business in Michigan and elsewhere?"

SAY NO to HB4202 and HB4203

Malfunctioning carbon units ...and, the silence from the easily manipulated bourgeoisie liberals, and their retrograde planning Nerd bike trails becomes deafening.  The environment does not rule me.  I rule over the environment.

America's conscience is responding with strengthening itself against tyranny, while our governmental protectors now practice maneuvers in Miami, and Huston, that desensitize, and hone skills as is observed here.

Heck, even the proponents of the 2nd amendment get caught up in the false premises promoted by the lefty lobbies arguing in favor of disarmament.  Even those who advocate gun ownership too often agree rather easily, that a fully automatic machine gun is too much. [to allow]  They agree that having a bazooka is probably just plain crazy.  And that schools are a bad place to allow guns at all; this last receiving an exclamation point with the governor vetoing SB59.

How sad.  How intellectually lazy.  

How incredibly naive.

Not in the failure of the governor to sign, but in the thinking that one does not have the absolute God-given right to defend their person from aggressors by whatever means possible.  In the thinking that some social sense of insecurity should trump the ability for an individual to provide for his or her own protection. In the thought that an unarmed populace is somehow more intrinsically safe than one which in self interest, has armed itself.

Thus the argument so predictably presented by the left, that the founders of our constitution "didn't envision semi-automatic rifles and machine guns", falls flat on its face.  The second amendment was put in place for a reason.  It was followed up by the third, (quartering without consent) which few could quote, and was placed so early in the bill of rights as to make very clear, its importance. Those two set up a very clear message to our newly formed government that it was not to assume any activity contrary to the liberty and freedoms assumed by the populace; that no action UPON the people would be accepted, and that the people had the right to defend against force in the commission of such action.

George Mason helped to clarify this fact.

"I think we ought to be looking at where the real danger is, like those large clips," said Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas.

The 20 minute police response time wouldn't be "the real danger" when a Law abiding citizenry is impuissant when facing life, and death situations, would it?  It's gotta be the "clips".  So, yet again, we watch another Republican dunderhead who spirals down into the Progressive abyss.  Kay Bailey, obviously isn't equipped to hold a conversation using appropriate firearm terminology, so, perhaps that's why she isn't capable to distinguish that it is called a Bill of Rights, and not a bill of needs.  The Governerd has the same Shall not be infringed problem with his sanctioning impotent rich homicide zones.

If it looks like a politician, squawks like a politician, then vote its Democracy pandering nasty ass out of office.  It is - restore our Republic - that simple.

"I'm very pleased that we are continuing to have an ongoing discussion," said Haines, the chair of the House Health Policy Committee. "It has been very difficult. I don't think it's anybody's fault in Michigan. It's been very difficult to get answers out of Washington."

Details, including the requirements and the costs to taxpayers, need to be worked out, she said. Still, Haines said she was leaning toward a state-run exchange.

"We have until Friday," she said. "I've been here all day making phone calls and talking to people. We're all committed to doing what's best for Michigan."

There is no authority given by the constitution to the federal government to force citizens to purchase a product.
