From Robin Vos, an iron-man (R) leggie who did his best...
While the Democrats have said this budget is responsible and doesn't raise taxes on the majority of Wisconsin citizens, nothing could be further from the truth. Prior to consideration of the budget, Democrats passed a "budget bailout bill" that raised taxes $1.2 billion to provide the revenue to fund the current budget bill. This budget now will raise taxes and fees by another $2.1 billion. It also includes a property tax increase of $1.48 billion. If you drive a car, buy gas, pay for electricity, pay for garbage service, own a cell phone or a land line, own a home, have a child in day care, or have a child in college, you can be sure that you will pay more.
Meantime, the JS' political "reporters" are taking dictation from Jim Doyle...
"We are protecting Wisconsin's middle class," Doyle declared, saying residents who earn less than $300,000 will face no increases in sales or income taxes in the state budget.
Beyond parody.

The same tactics here in CA have bankrupted us, I would say that you must stop it while you can.....
LCR, many of us would like to. Yet, the Liberals in this State seem to have the majority. Hell, my district even re-elected that ass Kagen to Congress! Not to mention that the only challenge to my state rep, Hansen, was a rino. It's time to leave this State. Let the Libs pay the taxes. Louisiana is looking good in 2010 or 2011.
