Does anyone except me realize Government is out of control?

Well, there are two of us. And I personally know of a few more. That makes 5 or 6. If half plus one of us really did, it wouldn't be out of control.

Let's keep this all real simple: this governor should be soundly defeated on any re-election attempt! He is not someone to be trusted to keep his hand out of our pockets! Instead, he is an enemy of the people. Period!

OMG! I never thought of that, but now that you said it, I will never be able to look at him again without thinking of it!

I truly feel sorry for the peeps this @$$ is Governor of....

That would be me...

The (not so) funny thing is, technically, Wisconsin already charges taxes on internet purchase. Wisconsin has a 5% sales and use tax. If sales tax is not collected on something you buy, you're supposed to fork over the use tax.

This is an attempt to collect that, coming from this A$$wipe who campaigned on an "I won't raise your taxes" platform.
