Freepers, those of us in Minnesota can use your help. This is the ultimate stand-off between big-spending liberalism and smaller government/less taxes conservatism.

Please vote in this Poll!

Dayton doesn’t have a side. He has never proposed a budget.

I’ve never understood the people who take the time to vote neither, undecided, or don’t care. Reminds me of an old cartoon of a guy telling a pollster “You can put me down as apathetic, I don’t care.”

It would appear Wisconsin border cities could make some $$ by stocking Miller beer products.

Voted. However I am also voting with my feet. End of August I will be in Texas.
It’s not just bars and liquor stores facing shutdowns in this state. A paper mill in Duluth just shut down because its permit with the State of Minnestoopid expired. The company can not renew the permit because Mark Dayton does not want to do his (censored) job.
There will be a flood tide of producers out of Minnesota. So tell me, Crazy Eyes Mark, how are you then going to finance your welfare state, with no producers to pay taxes?
Good riddance.

A little help for Minnesota, eh?

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Yep. Wonder if I’d get arrested for filling my van with Miller and setting up a booth on a street corner in Minneapolis. :-)

MillerCoors loses right to sell beer in Minnesota during shutdown

http://www.bizjournals.com/twincities/morning_roundup/2011/07/miller-coors-loses-right-to-sell-beer.html?s=newsletter&ed=2011-07-13&ana=e_twin_rdup

Check received by state June 27 (for the corrected amount) , 3 days letter they get a letter saying ‘your license is expired’ .
(shutdown began June 30) ...gross inefficiency by bloated goobermint on display again.

And some still want them to run their healthcare?
