Warning: this contains my political views

I think that things are a bit wild here in Wisconsin when the state is being compared to Cairo and Tunisia. 

I voted for Scott Walker to become governor and do what he is doing right now.  He said he would not raise taxes.  So he needs to cut spending.  Public officials who are having benefits and future wages cut are upset because they are the first ones affected.  They will not be the last.  All of us will need to accept less government programs and cuts to things that we are used to getting.  My turn is coming to feel the pain.  The public employees are only the first.  You may think that I am wrong, but there is one thing I do know.  I cannot afford to pay any more taxes than I do now - except in Illinois where I still own a piece of land and Illinois just raised taxes.  If it were possible to pick up my land and move it, I would. 

I will say that Gov. Walker needs to slow down and let discussion on the budget occur and not force it through so quickly.  That is why we have 3 branches of government - for checks and balances on each other. 

I am asking my Illinois friends for a favor...if you see my state senator Bob Jauch, who is now staying in Illinois to escape his responsibilities in Wisconsin, send him home!  How can he represent me from another state?  He and the other cheesehead senators need to come back to their home state to work out this situation.  Oh, I just heard that some Hoosier state legislators are coming to Illinois to escape their duties in Indiana.  Send them home, too.  Maybe Illinois could make some money by charging all these people rent.
