    You are correct and I was wrong, but via the same information it shows Walker is planning to create a un-warranted larger deficit over the next two years: The tax cuts will cost the state a projected $140 million in tax revenue -- but not until the next two-year budget, from July 2011 to June 2013. The cuts are not even in effect yet, so they cannot be part of the current problem./

    They simply show the changes Walker is making at the cost of the state.

    I have Zero experience as a resident or tax payer in WI, I have zero experience in Economics on any level, I have zero experience in politics of any kind. I wrongfully assumed that I could convey information I believed to be correct in a open forum.

    Why is it some people still think that taking less money from taxpayers, money that belongs to taxpayers who have a reasonable expectation that elected officials will spend it wisely, is taking away from the state.

    The money belongs to the citizens of WI...not the goddamned govt.

    That type of thinking is why we (collectively, as a country) are in this mess.

    Reagan: "You PATCO air traffic controllers better go back to work or I'll fire all of you."
    PATCO: "WTFE, dude. We're going on strike. You can't fire us. We belong to a UNION!"
    Reagan: "You're all fired."
    PATCO: "Holy shit! He fired us."
    Reagan: "That's right, bitches."

    You pro-union types can get your panties all wadded up if you want. Unions are part of the problem...not part of the solution. They should all be fired. And the elected representatives of the people in WI should be impeached and removed from office.

    Fuckin' unions and democrats. They're perfect for each other.

    The unions/union members think that just because they are making "slightly more" than their public counterparts that they are OK. Its the fact that they are getting cadillac benefits/perks and paying for a sliver of the cost is the issue. The people who are paying the taxes that fund the lion share of their cadillac benefits packages don't get these benefits. Then, they fund and support the politicians to get them elected who they will then be negotiating with?

    It is corruption and redistribution of wealth in its most basic form.
