California is a LOT more conservative than people think. Just take a look at our gubernatorial history
The R by Arnold's name on TV during primaries and elections is a fraud.
leave my money alone and let me go about my business and they can do whatever they want to this place....until they do something that offense your conservativeness.
Wait... does this mean that you can't do that in Texas??
yeah theres some law, I think can't purchase after midnight?
I don't remember, its been so long since I've bought booze that late in Texas.

I wasn't talking about Arnold, for the record. I was thinking more of the ousting of Gray Davis in the first place. Not to mention Pete Wilson's several terms.
California has several large/liberal cities, but its rural areas lean extremely right.
You can buy hard liquor only at a liquor store and they are only open until 9pm and closed on Sundays. You cannot buy 'desert' wine on Sunday. So say you wanted to make something with Sherry or Marsala wine, you couldn't buy it on Sunday. Who drinks that type of wine???
I have no idea what is so funny about you changing my quote to Agriculture. Put down the sauce, young man!
I remember blue laws. That was stupid.
We got you beat . . . sadly.
Hence, no gambling and no liquor after midnight . . . and no liquor on Sundays.
It really isn't her fault, she knew this could happen and warned the legislature to get their ass in gear and pass a budget. Dumb reps don't realize that if they let the gov't shutdown and people go without stuff they normally have, they won't get re-elected.
You can buy liquor anywhere that has a license in Michigan (7-11, party store, grocery store, etc). Can buy it alllll day, everyday between 6am-2am (i think 11am on Sunday, dunno). Yes, even Christmas.
But how the shutdown affects liquor sale has been covered. Bottles arent stamped or what have you, but it is tightly regulated by the state gov. You can still buy liquor during the shutdown, but the stores will only have their stock available, so when they run out, theyre done. If the shutdown lasts a while, Ohio is going to see alot of Michigan plates on thier roads.
The state has averted shutdown. They agreed on increasing what services the sales tax could be applied to, as well as increasing income tax from 3.9 to 4.35%. These services include...
• Tanning salons
• Escort services
• Massages
• Administrative services (like payroll)
• Investment advising
• Janitorial
• Armored cars
• Private investigators
• Packaging and labeling
• Commercial landscaping
• Skiing
• Business service centers
• Carpet and upholstery cleaning
• Courier services
• Do ent preparation
• Self-storage
• Transit
• Ground passenger services
• Travel agents
• Scenic transportation
• Service contracts
• Interior design
• Warehousing
• Storage
WHAT Wouldn't be taxed
• Cable or satellite television
• Sports and concert tickets
• Vehicle repair
• Golf greens fees
• Marina fees
• Movies
• Legal fees
• Accounting fees
• Haircuts
The state government is a farce. What is the state tax in Texas?
Texas doesnt have one. And judging by this link, raising the income tax puts Michigan about the middle of the road.
I could go on a rant, but this isnt the proper forum.

Another reason to come home
This is some bull right here.
Taxing a rub and a tug is uncons utional.
Amen!This is some bull right here.

No state income tax but state/local sales tax out the wazoo (8.5% in most major metros) and very high property tax (try $3.50-$4.00 per $100 valuation). So TANSTAAFL.
And now, since our deadweight reps don't have the balls to ensure that the existing state gasoline tax is actually used for roads, we're supposedly running out of money to build new highways. So everything new is going in as pricey toll roads (12-15 cents per mile) and they want to convert existing free roads to toll roads. Use the damned gas tax for roads, not boondoggles, and increase it 10 or 20 cents (and use it!) if more money is really needed. Gas has basically tripled the last decade, nobody's going to notice another 20 cents.
MGM Grand Detroit is opening in 20 minutes...woohoo.
