Say good bye to retail sales in Michigan

This must be the right thing to do because it's a Fair Tax. Say "good night" Michigan. It's gonna get dark real soon.

- Fair-tax bill to be introduced in Michigan Legislature: "Legislation that would let Michigan residents vote to eliminate personal income and business taxes, and raise the state's sales tax and expand it to services will be unveiled Thursday.
If both the state House and Senate approve the so-called 'fair tax' resolution by a two-thirds vote, it will go on the November 2008 statewide ballot. Otherwise, the Michigan FairTax Association hopes to collect hundreds of thousands of voter signatures to place it on the ballot.
Individuals would pay property taxes and a sales tax between 8.5 cents and 9 cents on the dollar under the plan, which also would expand the sales tax to include all services such as haircuts. "
