Hi Honey, I'm Home.....

It's been over five decades since Wisconsin passed into law its collective bargaining statutes regarding unions for state employees. Wisconsin was the first state to enact such laws. Even the then sitting mayor of Milwaukee - the last mayor of a major city to be elected on the Socialist Party ticket - felt the state had given away significant power to negotiate and contain government spending and therefore budget control.

The pendulum has been swinging further and further to the Left with the state budget getting further and further from reality and balance. A state with great work ethic, excellent highly skilled workforce and a nearly recession proof economy 50 years ago has been rendered yet another "service economy" as manufacturer after manufacturer headed elsewhere with their high pay scale jobs. Why? Because of high state taxes on individuals and corporations.

Maybe we can still salvage the state economy if the playing field has been leveled. This is a start. Thank you Gov. Walker.

Best regards, Tom
