Michigan Cuts Jobless Benefit by Six Weeks

The primary reason for all these severe state budget crises is a lack of tax revenue. Business is sitting on trillions of dollars and one third of American corporations pay zero tax with many getting large refunds. Corporations paid only 6.6% of tax revenues last year. And the people continue to suffer the consequences of businesses and lawmakers refusing to make Corporate America pay their fair share into the society from which it profits. "Shared burden," anyone?
