MI moves up in
Tax Foundation
rankings!
What now?
The Tax
Foundation says Michigan has
moved up to 7th place in
business tax climate due to
changes the legislature
approved last year while the
overall tax rating was just
at 12th. That's great
improvement but also means
we continue to lose jobs to
at least
6 other states. We can gain
those jobs by adopting the
MI FairTax to further reduce
the cost of doing business
in our state. Why let those
jobs go elsewhere?

Replacement Plan!

It's clear. It's time for a change — it's time for the
MI FairTax.
The current tax system is broken. It's complicated, easy
to evade, and unfairly burdens the lower and middle classes. And,
attempts to fix it have only made it worse.
The Michigan FairTax is Fair:
It replaces the state income tax system, which taxes what we earn,
with a tax on what we spend. The MI FairTax is a consumption tax: the
more you buy, the more you pay in taxes; the less you buy, the less
you pay in taxes. So everyone pays fairly when they choose to spend. The
MI FairTax:
Makes sure everyone pays their fair share
Allows you to keep your entire pay check free of state taxes
Un-taxes the poor with a rebate on the necessities of life
Stimulates investment, economic growth and job creation
The MI FairTax is Simple:
NO Tax Filings
NO Loopholes
NO Hidden Taxes
The MI FairTax is Pro-growth:

The MI

Proposal is definitely the single most far reaching and
important step forward in the effort to make Michigan competitive
again. It's time for bold and innovative
change. It is time for the citizens of Michigan to take matters
into their own hands. 2012 is the right time for the MI FairTax.

A
PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE MICHIGAN CONSTITUTION BY AMENDING SECTIONS 3,
7, 8, 10, and 11 OF ARTICLE IX, AND BY ADDING SECTIONS 43, 44, 45,
46, AND 47 TO ARTICLE IX. THE AMENDMENT IS BRIEFLY SUMMARIZED AS
FOLLOWS:
The Michigan Fair Tax Proposal would amend the Constitution of the
State of Michigan to eliminate the Michigan Income Tax of 4.35% and
the Michigan business tax and replaces those taxes with a 9.75%
sales tax on all consumer purchases of goods and services, but does
not tax
business to business transactions. No other statewide tax
could be restored, enacted, or the sales tax increased without a
vote of the people. The state shall reimburse to every Michigan
citizen's household an
amount based on the Federal Poverty Level
Guidelines. This proposal would constitutionally guarantee
Revenue
Sharing for counties, townships, cities, and villages.
