Done with fiscal irresponsibility, on to bad policy enactment

We managed to botch up the tax and fiscal policy of this state last week. Now that we have completed that task, we can move on to the enactment of some excessively bad policy. Over the next month, I can tell you with relative certainty, you will see a flurry of left-leaning, if not socialistic-in-nature, bills working their way through the House. Case in point: HB4607. Aptly described by http://www.michiganvotes.org/ as a bill to authorize state grants to “positive parenting skills” programs.

Read the bill language here:
http://www.michiganvotes.org/Legislation.aspx?ID=53122
It authorizes expenditures of state general funds for such things as improving parent and child interaction, improving school readiness and promoting access to needed community services. It will open the door to the creation of any number of new programs or agencies that will "help" you do what you should do for yourself: raise your children.

The liberals know that you are not paying close enough attention to be fully aware of what they are slipping by you. You are too busy trying keep your family business afloat or figuring out how you are going to meet your new tax obligations.

This type of legislation further justifies the need for a part-time legislature. Instead of coming to Lansing for a couple of months to take care of the state budget, we stay around all year doing things like mandating businesses to provide a bathroom to anyone who has an emergency, piling more and more licensing regulations on businesses or telling parents they are clueless and must therefore ask the state to show them how to "improve parent and child interaction."

Call your state rep. and tell them to reject this legislation.

It takes a village don't ya know. Personally I wish the village idiots in the legislature would go home and leave the citizens alone for a change. Cradle to grave the government will tell you how to live how to raise your children. We have the smoking police next it is the fat police, what after that.

Does anyone remember the name of that guy who said something to the effect of he who controls the education of our young..........

I think his name was Adolph something back just prior to WWII.

Perhaps we need to push World history a bit more in our public schools. I have noticed there seems to be a move afoot all over this country and it seems the non custodial parents as well as the CPS Reform groups are putting down their differences and coming together to put an end to government destruction of the family funded by Title IV Federal funds that are used by the states to completely eviscerate the American family.

See what I found tonight.

They have decided if the main stream media won't cover the problem because of government control of said media to cover up the dirty little secret about how your Federal and State Tax dollars are being spent they will get the message out any way the can.

This is only the tip of the iceberg of the revolution we are seeing across this country.
