We need fundamental reforms in how Michigan both spends and collects our taxes.
This isn't some obscure argument best left to academics and bureaucrats. It's at the core of such living room issues as the rising costs of college, the dependability of your local cops and firefighters, and the security of your job.
What to do? We have a choice. We can keep staggering along, patching the state budget year after year the way we patch potholes. Or we can truly transform the way our state works. A durable solution requires finding common ground, far away from the normal partisan, transactional Lansing politics.
