Now what the hell is wrong with this picture? I cannot believe Gov. Granholm LOBBIED Gaffney of all people to twist his arm to vote for a tax hike.
I have been saying all along that I am NOT in favor for a tax hike because I live in Detroit. We are already paying too much on taxes and with homicides spiking at 11% unemployment in Detroit is at 15.1% and families suffering I STILL hear people blaiming Former Gov. John Engler for this mess.
Look at what this tax hike has created. My paycheck will SHRINK because of this crap.
This is the WORST pieces of legislation I have ever witnessed. Who the hell can afford this crap?What pisses me off the most is how anti-family these lawmakers really are. Most of these lawmakers profess to believe in God and Jesus Christ yet you are taxing me the death. You did not take just 10% but 80%!!! Who in the world will be able to afford this when no one is working in the urban communities?71 percent say they would prefer that legislators use mostly reductions in spending rather than mostly increases in taxes. 65 percent say they would prefer spending reductions only while just 22 percent say they would prefer tax increases only. Majorities of whites blacks members of union households liberals conservatives independents seniors and young people prefer spending cuts to tax increases. In fact the same groups choose spending cuts only rather than tax increases only to close the entire budget gap. However they STILL turned around and raised my damn taxes. Tax money that I cannot afford. People are STRUGGLING and living paycheck to paycheck. If they realized that they would have not voted to raise my taxes. Why did ALL the Democrats from Detroit voted to raise my taxes? The city cannot continue to run the way it is.. into the ground. What our Detroit lawmakers just did was give people another reason of why families are moving out of the city. You are taxing us to death. I repeat.. you are TAXING us to DEATH!!!!! Yet you think I can afford this mess. Show me some constituents who have been going along in raising taxes on a fixed income or a limited income. Thank you for destroying the middle class families. If you expect me to stay here think again. I am officially tired of us here in the Motor City. We love raising taxes and raising unemployment. Meanwhile families will continue to suffer in Detroit. Yes. I am aware that you have to pay taxes to receive services. I am against this MASSIVE tax hike that is going to make me poorer. Where are my Conservative Democrats and fiscal conservatives running in 2008?We should have been in the business of reforming state government. But Michigan's leaders did not have the will or the courage to seize the opportunity. Therefore. Michigan has officially become the anti-family state. In other words. Detroit and the rest of Michigan hates traditional families who are trying to make ends meet. Proof of what I am saying is this massive tax hike.
This doesn't help matters in Detroit (or anywhere else for that matter). I'm seeing for sale signs everywhere as it is and this is in one of the growing areas of the state. If I had to pick the biggest problem in the City of Detroit outside of schools (Cass Tech and Renaissance excluded) it is the property tax rate. Last I heard it was 67 mills about 40% higher than Grosse Pointe. A $200,000 home has a $6730 tax bill. That's more than I pay a year in rent. I hope that's changed or the home ownership rate will continue to drop. One thing Detroit has going for it is the architecture. Some of those old houses are build a lot better than the cheaply made and overpriced stuff used today. That's a great selling point for home ownership and IMO that's the best way for Detroit to possibly get back to a million people.
