 time they aren t a changin  a panel of business leaders met on mackinac island i m jealous to discuss the state of business in michigan the increasingly businessless state what were the main problems with innovation and doing business here taxes and complicated regulation  ldquo if it s complex to start a business if it s complex to get through the bureaucracy it s an inhibitor rdquo compuware s coo bob paul said ldquo you can go to single portal and that s a good first step but once you get in the single portal it s pretty complex i think there s more work that can be done in lansing to make it easier for people to grow their business and to bring business to the state rdquo good luck with that one it would be pretty hard to distract the democrats from raising taxes on businesses and the rich ie the employed but hope springs eternal and november is coming
