Joe, I know it's difficult to look at the big picture, but Wisconsin is now enjoying not the 3.2 billion deficit Walker started with, thanks to him and him alone, it's presently a 1 billion surplus which gives the great state of Wisconsin opportunities to serve its citizens equitably, grow businesses (nice place to live, famous for good neighborliness there), and more union jobs in the private sector could result who answer to some owner who's out there trying to make a living and feeding a lot of mouths along the way.
Had Wisconsin kept going down fiscally, you could be seeing a mass exodus of people, Wisconsin would have to consider collaborating with a neighbor state for business running, so they might have had to report to a governor in St. Paul, Des Moines, Springfield, or Lansing had it failed. Yes, some people in certain states are already asking to join a different, more competitive state just to eschew the high taxes of Liberalism gone bananas with other people's money, thinking no one will notice a million here or a million there being sliced off the state treasury to help some failed green business of a greedy politician's relative, eager to make sure she gets all her relatives in the pink before she retires.
Scott Walker's a success story in saving the fiscal part of a state, and he would be a distinct asset controlling 1/3 of the federal government with his eye on the details of where the money is going, who is cheating the people, and who is bringing in business hand over fist into his state's economy. Oops! I better be quiet. The state or two who are in the black are not suffering the same unemployment issues as states brought down by ambition of leaders to play Make A Wish fairy god mothers to every single person in the state. That's done by the people. The people work hard, businesses are run conservatively, the taxes roll in. Hurt the businesses with high taxes, and they go to another state.
