From the comments ...

Dear Gov. Walker,

Your policies will do nothing to create any high paying jobs in your state. Your actions have wrecked K-12 education in a state known for an educated workforce. Silicon Valley and Boston aren't your business community's idea of places that are friendly to the 'job creators,' but both have a shining track record of the creation of high-tech, high pay jobs.

Sooner of later the voters in the state will wake up to this and drive you from office. The population there is more like that of Germany - hard working, frugal, valuing education, and with the different sectors of society working together. Not like that oligarchic southern plantation cheap labor/low tech/no rights socio-economic model you're trying to import into the state.

People want to prosper. They aren't so desperate for jobs that they will accept an oligarchy of 'job creators' and passively accept ever lower living standards. They don't want their education taken from them, only to be handed a Bible as the recommended source of knowledge.

Get out of Dodge!


Right, Got it.
Go on bended knee to the wealthy.
Gut public works.
Gut education.
and give yourself a lobotomy.
Sounds like you're following, not leading, the wing nuts.
Maybe you should read the papers.
