    If Revenue Neutral... (none / 0) (#3)
    by Tom McMillin on Sat Mar 20, 2010 at 06:27:10 PM EST
    If it were revenue neutral --- say a $500M sales tax increase for a $500M decrease in MBT or personal taxes...many conservatives - hardcore conservatives, would say its not a tax increase.  And if, say, other taxes (MBT/Personal income tax, etc) is cut $600M, then it seems it'd be accurate to call it a tax cut.  

    But all in one year.  None of this $500M sales tax increase now, for a three year phase out of the MBT surcharge (which is what Granholm is pushing currently) -- that would be a tax increase.
