Hi Mitch, I'm leaving you this message to make you aware of the OTHER SIDE of the Michigan FairTax Proposal that Daar Fisher is attempting to introduce to people on this site. There are MAJOR problems associated with this tax proposal that people need to consider. Please click on the above links to review the information. This tax would greatly burden the middle class. The backers of this tax proposal, would have you believe, that it is not, shifting the tax burden from business to individuals because of 'hidden fees' passed on to individuals in product prices which essentiality pay that business's taxes. They say 'businesses do not pay taxes, people do'! If that IS TRUE, then ask yourself. Why then would businesses flock to Michigan if this tax proposal is passed which eliimnates their state taxes? Why would it make a difference, if according to them, under the current system the consumers are paying for business taxes anyway? Think about it, don't be fooled

At 1:37am on January 2, 2009, Daar Fisher said…: Hi Mitchell , I'm the state Internal Communication Director for the Michigan FairTax Assn which works "hand in glove" with goals of the Pickens Plan because by REPLACING the Michigan income tax, families and businesses will have additional disposable monthly income to make energy utilization improvements to their homes, businesses, and transportation.

How will passage of a MI FairTax do this? It will REPLACE the income tax and current sales tax, with a consumption tax (sales tax at point of retail sale). This means that no more state tax will be withheld from Michigan wage-earners' paychecks. What's more, every Michigan resident-family will receive a monthly "prebate" check, in amount based on family size. This will ensure that NO Michigan family will EVEN BEGIN paying the MI FairTax on goods / services unless, or until, they exceed poverty-level spending.

Under the FairTax plan, points of collection are reduced to retailers many of whom are already collecting sales tax. Because service providers must account for income tax withholding and compliance costs, their prices carry a hidden tax which will become visible under the MI FairTax. (The MI FairTax EXCLUDES business-to-business purchases as this would, again, hide the cost of taxation in prices.)

Because of the prebate to ALL Michigan-resident households, the MI FairTax rate would effectively be 0% on all monthly family spending to the poverty level; thereafter it's 9.75%. The average effective rate will be around 5.5% (see p.2 of pdf brochure).

This year I have helped so many members learn about personal home energy plans. It's all about power use, conservation, and home power generation, things I have been doing at my residence to lower my energy costs. Send me a friend request a to add me Mitchell, I'd be honored to have you as a friend here.

BTW, Michigan: I just posted an article on my page about Home Wind Systems in Michigan. Your state's representatives, governor, and public utility commission officials are not in your corner with this "soft policy" on Net Metering. Instead they have the tables turned against green power for businesses and homeowners. You should read that article, important.

Thank you for joining my group of friends!

I keep hearing that the petition is coming soon... Once that is in progress and millions of people sign then the Town Hall Meeting will be more likely to happen. Thousands may show for it.

By the way, I have sent out 50 e-mails so far and handed out about 10 flyers. I have gotten through the "F's" in my client list, so there are many more to send out.
I found the discussion I asked about in my last reply to your comments. I also, see the information from Scott DeSilva about 9/11 at the State Capitol. I do already have clients booked and can not afford to cancel them, but perhaps I could help you organize in some way. I am the President of my Massage Association and have plenty of experience organizing events.

On September 11 2008 a demonstration will be held on the steps of the state capitol building in Lansing, to support and promote a strong renewable energy policy for Michigan. Our goal is to let Michigan policy makers know that if they want our votes. They need to support strong legislation promoting Renewables in Michigan. We are looking for leaders to help promote this event and make it a huge success. Together we can help bring jobs back to Michigan, while lessening our nation’s dependency on foreign oil.

For more information go to www.Renewmich.com

Get in touch with me, let’s work on this together.
See you there, Scott
