Why not let the poor start their own gardens as a community type setting. This way they can start…Read More doing things for themselves Help them to be independent form others as in "self sufficient".

Dave, thank you for a thoughtful comment, "...privatize the gains and socialize the…Read More losses" gives a lot to think about. I also wish we had looked at restructuring the tax code to cover two unfunded wars.

“The state is only a year out of the recall mess that stalled any real change and any outside…Read More investment.”
[WI = Mississippi II]
What real change has been stalled?
The “Love” Gov. Walker of yours has had his way with passing austerity, Neanderthal budgets, disenfranchising voters, repealing fair wages for women, Act 10, marginally crippling unions, because they invariably support the middle class and Democratic party, putting Billions on the credit card, and then, disingenuously claiming to have “balanced the budget” and created a huge surplus as well, and now – think small government here – is moving forward with ultrasounds for all women contemplating abortion, and we cannot forget the “mine” which, will create 700 low paying permanent jobs for Wisconsinites… all of these masterful initiatives have one thing in common: they are all tied up in the courts, and will not be resolved for years, and, the taxpayers of Wisconsin are all paying for Steve’s love affair with the “Love” Gov. Walker and his serial abortions…
What will you say on June 5, 2014, when WI is the same as it is today or worse?
I know. “Well, it is only 2-years out of the recall mess…”
