“MI voters are beyond stupid. I keep thinking they’ll realize that the idiots they keep voting in are RESPONSIBLE for the mess we’re in.”

Yep, the UAW dems are truly dolts. To this day, they are blaming Michigan’s woes on that evil bushchimpyhitler! I walked into my neighborhood watering hole the other day and the liberal dolts were complaining about the coming increase in tobacco costs, due to the Obama and Granholm tax increases. I pointed out to them that they should be celebrating and not complaining because this is precisely what they voted for.

Nothing but harumphs as a response. Idiots, one and all.

The average driver will pay about $400.00 more per year.A person earning $20,000 per year will see about 8% of their take home pay used to pay the new taxes.

Not to pick nits, but $400 is 2% of $20,000. It's still a ridiculous tax increase. Especially now.

In Michigan they use the money more for things like sidewalks, city buses, bike and joggling paths, union wages for non-existing projects,...

Only the MI Senate is Republican controlled, the RATS control the House.
