Why Doyle Killed the Sales Tax

There's a good reason that Jimbo Doyle killed the Milwaukee County sales-tax idea.

Scott Walker says that Doyle killed it because Doyle wants to run again for Governor and cannot alienate Milwaukee County taxpayers by authorizing a new tax.

Maybe.

But Lee Holloway finds a better reason for Doyle's action:

Transit funding will likely suffer major cuts next year because of a shortfall in other funding sources, which will force further cuts in service, Holloway said.

Doyle's stooges will point to the MCTS as another example of 'failed management' by Walker, no matter the facts or circumstances.
