Is it any wonder why it comes to this? For years Wisconsin has been under control of wreckless spenders and now Gov. Walker walks into a see of red ink. The problem is that the government is seen by many as an unlimited pot of cash. The proposals made by the Walker administration sound a bit similar to those that have been in place in the private sector for a long time. However, once you have the entitlement state of mind and grown accustomed to it, pain ensues when the heavy crash of reality hits. Thank Jim Doyle and loyal enablelers who allows the debt and cumulative deficits to pile up to this point.
