Frankie "the Fixer" Busalacchi, Doyle's DOT Secretary, doesn't like National Security.
So he came up with numbers that will be unpopular when determining the cost of the enhanced-security driver's license which will be issued next year.
Motorists would have to pay $15 more for driver's licenses next year to cover the full cost of complying with a federal anti-terrorism law, but state legislators are skittish about increasing the fee more than $10.
Naturally, there are NO other costs at DOT which could be cut to offset the "cost" that The Fixer came up with. (We can think of one: eliminating State-paid legal representation for DarthDoyle's political contributors.)
But then, some folks don't know exactly how Frankie came up with the number, anyway:
"It's always difficult looking at numbers and assessing if it's a real number or an inflated number for something they don't want to do," [said Rep. Kitty Rhoades (R-Hudson)].
So maybe The Fixer is just stamping his widdle feets--on Wisconsin motorists, of course.
