Another day, another GOP tax cut for the wealthy
The Greedy Old Party is nothing if not consistent.
Yesterday, the GOP-controlled House of representatives managed to pass a big tax cut for the wealthy disguised as health care reform.
Today, in Madison, the GOP-led State Assembly rolled out a plan to finance over-budget highways, but in reality it's a tax cut for the wealthy while lower-and-middle class Wisconsinites will pay regressively relatively more for gasoline at the pump.
As I said, credit them with consistency.
Guaranteeing the wealthy the certainty that Big Business also demands so they can continue to take more of the finer things society can offer - - like Wisconsin groundwater fresh water, clean air and now, affordable mobility.
While also taking a unique shot at Milwaukee County, further depriving residents of crucial transit services already under-funded.
Because the suburban GOP right-wing needs a Milwaukee with problems for their anti-urban narratives.
As Gov. Walker told a gathering in upper-income Waukesha County's Oconomowoc towards the end of his 2012 recall campaign, 'don't let Wisconsin become another Milwaukee.'
On, Wisconsin.
