County officials put small tax on ballot By Chad Selweski Macomb Daily Staff Writer Macomb County veterans rallied the troops Friday and convinced county officials to place a small tax on the November ballot that would fund veterans services. Macomb Daily : Tax would boost veteran services 08/09/08 As Many of you know I am a strong supporter of the Detroit Zoo tax, as it is special and dear to me. It is also the #1 attraction in Michigan, pumps $60 million back into the economy, and how could Detroit be without a Zoo? and all the behind the scences saving wildlife, and housing animals that could not live in the wild...... Well, now it seems everyone is going to try for small taxes that will add up to a lot over time. Veterans need help and I do strongly support them. Grandpa was a WWII vet! But, people need to realize they need to raise the money themselves and not force people to donate money, and I bet the tax is not even tax deductible. I stopped ALL donations to places ...
