Don’t blame me. I did not vote for the big spending, Crony Capitalist, 2A loathing Progressive.

For MI #smallbiz the Senate gas tax proposal will hurt the bottom line and jeopardize Michigan’s economic recovery. http://t.co/L8zG06oTz6

So, what happens if HB 5477 now becomes extended by two years, the already sales tax portion is gradually dedicated for road maintenance over same period with Wholesale sales tax increasing to 7% (Rack Price) and MDOT controlling said taxation thereafter?
Cudos to Speaker Bolger @JaseBolger for thinking outside the “gas tax box” to raise more revenue for roads! http://t.co/qTJ93zReEd

“the taxpayers are the last place to look”. Sure it is. Folks, it’s all just a Shell Game in Lansing.
OABTW, did you notice the graft?
(22)Nuh Uh.(1)Betcha didn’t see this coming:
“Today, Detroit’s five state senators stood united in supporting a major road funding package. This bill will allow us to speed up repair of Detroit’s roads and make major improvements to the bus service for our 100,000 passengers daily. With their support HB 5477 passed the Senate by a 23-14 vote. Be sure to thank Senators Virgil Smith, Coleman Young, Jr., Burt Johnson, Morris Hood III, and Tupac Hunter for their leadership and encourage your representatives in the State House to support this important legislation.”
Did anyone catch anything earlier about paying more at the pump to support mass transit?
Me neither.
Oh, and it gets better.
