As liberal as I am, I frankly don't give a crap about abortion issues with whats going on right now with the economy. We need someone who can get us out of this mess. If I can get some reassurance that Andy Dillon will remain neutral on right-to-life issues (which could be questionable if we had a Republican-controlled legislature), I think he's our guy. He's a wonk who seems to understand the bud ...

I am usually a big fan of Ms. Svoboda's work. The lack of balance in this article, however, calls into question all her other work. In the spirit of full disclosure I am the head brewer at the Traffic Jam and have known both parties in the dispute for over ten years. I like the owner's of Avalon have tried to stay out of the dispute as much as possible and most of all to keep an open mind. Ms. Svo ...

moe: Certainly, taxes aren't the sole problem. Of course a certain amount of taxation is necessary to fund core government (our elected leaders who cannot hold employment elsewhere while servine) and critical services that are shared among the people (your good example of the fire department). The cries you hear are from the taxpayer, when he realizes that his garnished wages are being spent in ...

Moe, I would agree with you, if the state had its priorities right. We keep being asked for more money to fund college educations, welfare and MEA demands. Just because you don't like what the Mackinac Center says, doesn't mean it is not valid. If you want the whole state to look and function like Detroit, just keep listening to Jack Lessenberry and shovel money at failure, it does get results. ...

RE: any content out of the Mackinac Center; Exactly WHERE do they get their funding. Anyone whose sole answer to everything is "taxes are the problem" have a simplistic picture of the world. I'm guessing most of those at the Center will NEVER need anything from govt. Most people WILL. If your house is broken into or catches fire, do you call a private firm for help. NO you call a govt agency ...
