Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker

Governor Scott Walker’s recent reconciliatory tone, if one can call it that, is quite contradictory to the one that was recorded when he thought he was talking to one of the Koch brothers, and I think simply reflects the fact that he is worried he might lose his job. I believe his tone during the he-thought-Koch conversation reflects his true approach. (I do not like to say anything negative about anybody, and this is not intended to be; but I felt I had to make a statement about this)

In any case, this is not the point; there is no emotional or political issue here.

The issue is quite simple, that the current administration’s economic policies are severely flawed; the results speak for themselves, as reflected in the month-to-month job loss in Wisconsin while the broader US economy has shown actually some strength (and job growth). 

Imagine what will happen if the national economy takes a downturn due to one or more factors which I have listed. Wisconsin will likely suffer recession-like conditions, or worse. Every one of us, no matter what we do for a living, will be affected. 

The longer Wisconsin waits for a change in leadership, the worse we will be.
