Reducing or eliminating Detroit's city income tax

[Gpwrangler]

Americans living in Windsor pay close to 5 bucks in toll booth tax every time they cross the tunnel or bridge. Why not put toll booths on every entrance to the city of Detroit for suburbanites? Maybe even have the toll booth guy come out and do random car searches. Hahaha. Oh the horror...

Especially if we charged in both directions...

Hey, they can even take it a step further. Since in the previous thread someone said that DPD officers make $12/hr, put them in the booth with a dog sniffer. Dog smells drugs, car confiscated and goes to the city's treasury. Pickup truck with scrap metal and copper pipes that doesn't have paperwork over where it came from also gets confiscated and goes to city's treasury. Stolen cars don't leave the city. Tolls pay for police budget. Budget crisis solved. Drug and scrapping crime rate down.
