Raise Michigan's beer tax to fight child abuse


Task force: Raise Michigan's beer tax to fight child abuse
"Michigan should increase its beer tax by a nickel a bottle to combat child abuse and neglect and decrease the number of children who end up in foster care, the co-chair of a state-appointed task force said this week.
'It's worth the investment,' said C. Patrick Babcock, whose 85-member Child Welfare Insurance Task Force will present its findings next week."
So now I'm drinking beer "for the children"?
