The evil polices of that evil Republican Scott Walker has now produced a $1 billion budget surplus in Wisconsin.
The evil polices of that evil Republican Scott Walker has now produced a $1 billion budget surplus in Wisconsin.
Senate Republicans Tuesday narrowly passed Gov. Scott Walker’s $541 million tax cut proposal in a vote that guaranteed the cuts will become law.
The tax decreases — the third round of cuts by Republicans in less than a year — passed 17-15 with GOP Sen. Dale Schultz of Richland Center joining all Democrats in voting against the proposal. The proposal now goes to the Assembly, which passed a different version of the tax cuts last month with two Democrats joining all Republicans in supporting it.
With growing tax collections now expected to give the state a $1billion budget surplus in June 2015, Walker’s bill will cut property and income taxes for families and businesses, and zero out all income taxes for manufacturers in the state. [emphasis mine]
Why is it that even with gigantic and yearly surpluses Democrats still oppose tax cuts? Or do we already know the answer?
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

In government, progress is not measured in how much of the peoples money you save but how much you spend. That is what the entity government is charged with doing as their foundation model of operation. Governments tendency is to always spend too much and take too much of the peoples individuals rights. It is the nature of the beast. Hence the Constitution.
It a is mistake to apply the peoples common sense to what government does, there is no equivalency. That is the fundamental problem with drawing logical equivalency contrasts in story’s like this. The only counter balance to this counter intuitive activity is for the people to change how they see government and politicians and constantly confront the people who the people have empowered through their vote to limit how much of the peoples tax money is appropriated and spent.
Scott Walker is an anomaly in these regards, which does not mean that he should be loved, adored and not watched like a hawk. He is a politician and must always be watched and confronted to justify how and why he is spending (or not spending ) The peoples tax money.
Fall not in love with any politician, ever. This is what I have forced myself to learn over the past eight years, I have taught myself to think differently, based in reality and not what I would like reality to be.
As you know from my comments here I see Scott Walker as the best bet for the 2016 presidential contest.
And Walker is so hated by lots of folks here in Wisconsin. No good deed (that violates sacred cows) goes un hated I guess.
