If local mom and pop stores have to charge a sales tax, then internet stores should have to charge them too. Or else eliminate sales taxes on all stores. We need a level playing field for our retailers.
I would prefer to support our local businesses, than Amazon and E-bay. I think Jeff Bezos is a Socialist, and every time you help him, you hurt yourself and your country. Jeff Bezos's net worth is 201.7 billion USD.

The alumni are the ones who donate large sums for things like new stadiums. They are the ones who create this college culture of downtown bars by influencing University leadership and the Alumni Associations. A bunch of UM grads work in state government. Ban them, problem solved.
Start by banning taxpayer funded state employees from attending college athletic events at UM. Ban those collegiate license plates that DOR offers for a donation to the University. Ban companies from hiring UM graduates. Start stalking and doxxing state employees who are UM grads. Problem solved.
