On March 12, 2007, Michael D. LaFaive, director of fiscal policy for the Mackinac Center, was interviewed on "The Frank Beckmann Show" on Detroit’s WJR 760 AM regarding Gov. Jennifer Granholm’s proposal to levy a 2 percent tax on services. Projections show the plan would eliminate 19,000 jobs and fall $221 million short in revenue estimations. The interview is 15 minutes, 3 seconds.
