Erpenbach: EITC worth saving (guest column) -“Several new tax credits for businesses have passed the Legislature this session and will be funded in the biennial budget which is currently being debated in the Capitol. These business credits are incentives to businesses that work for Wisconsin to create and keep jobs here. Workers in Wisconsin don’t get the kinds of tax credits that businesses do, but there are some tax credits for working families that are essential for our economy. The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is one of those. Governor Walker’s state budget cuts the EITC program and increases taxes on Wisconsin’s qualifying working families on average by $300 a family; this is a mistake.” View full column: http://legis.wisconsin.gov/senate/sen27/news/Press/2011/col2011-002.asp

1. MOB those hearings you Wisconsin "union thugs." Will Hopper

be bringing his young mistress?

2. My Latin's sketchy. Is that loosly "Republicans are destroyed"?

[rzemanfl]

4. I had my Latin corrected, it supposed to mean "the Republican

Party must be destroyed." It is based on the statement in Richard Clarke's book of a few years ago.

6. Destroyed is a very strong word, and I can't think of a more appropriate word to describe what

must happen to their party to get back "our" America from the corporate pigs that have purchased our government to do their bidding. The party indeed, needs to be destroyed along with all of their rigged voting machines.
