Oh..hey, Wisconsin. Welcome to the world of minimum wage jobs, disappearing executive jobs, school cuts, corrupt government and all manner of bottom-of-the scale measurement. Idahoans got this gem shoved up their asses in the 1980s and they're winning the race to the bottom today!

Back when the unions supported Reagan.... do they ever learn. Once, in my state, I was circulating a petition to get a minimum wage hike on the ballot at a union picnic. This was a union sponsored initiative. A woman refused to sign it explaining that she didn't want minimum wage workers to earn anywhere close to what she made. Um. Well. Um.

Why does Scott Walker look like he is drunk/stoned/mentally-challenged in every photo? Because he totally is?

Alt-text says the photo was 'shopped. From looking at the pixels, it looks like someone erased all their tent-pole boners. What isn't clear is if they changed the blood to ink-colored in the document?

Yeah, that legislation is usually taken by employers as a signal to purge the union activists off their payrolls. Any worker with the brains required to write up a simple grievance is history.
