Rolling Plunder- How Scott Walker and Paul Ryan Plan to Sell Out Wisconsin
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | March 30, 2016 | Sundance

Posted on 03/30/2016 11:00:41 PM PDT by sockmonkey

Wise Up and Rise Up Wisconsin

Governor Scott Walker likes to display his rebel side (although it’s an illusion intended to solidify Tea-Party bona fides in optics only) by riding around on a Harley Davidson motorcycle. After all, Harley Davidson is headquartered in Wisconsin, well, for now.

Wisconsin representative, now Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, also likes to tout his own form of fiscal conservatism. However, as the former Chairman of the budgetary ways and means committee, a federal budget is also an optical illusion (hasn’t been one since ’07).

Representative Paul Ryan and Governor Scott Walker along with RNC Chairman Reince Preibus promote themselves as proud Wisconsin cheese-heads; “conservatives” they say.

Well, given Paul Ryan’s full-throated endorsement of, and promotion for, the Trans-Pacific Trade Deal (TPP), perhaps the Wisconsin working voter would like to see exactly what they have in mind for you; and as a direct consequence for any candidate they endorse, namely Ted Cruz – who, coincidentally, was the co-author of the Trade Promotion Authority bill which was the vehicle to insure it’s passage.

But rather than go through all of the tentacles, and difficult to understand TPP construct, let’s instead use that wonderful Scott Walker (Harley Davidson motorcycle) example to show Wisconsin voters what’s really going on.

The disparity on tariffs imposed by India, and the US shocked me.

Harley’s assembled in India to avoid tariffs that don’t really exist because we have “free trade”, right?

So you might ask if India, with a billion citizen market, charges a 100% tariff, what’s the tariff the USA charges to import a motorcycle here from say, Japan? Well, that would be 2.4%....

America will remove a tariff levied on Japanese motorcycles with engine displacements of over 700cc under the recently announced Trans-Pacific Partnership trade pact (TPP), which includes Australia and covers 40 percent of the global economy.

Is this true or false?

truth!!! Alleged conservatism as a way of sabotaging and selling out American industry and American workers. All for what?

Alleged conservatism. The phony baloney kind as promoted by: Scott Walker—usually a great governor
Ted Cruz-—useless talker and useless eater
Paul Ryan— a more disgusting useless talker and useless eater

I already looked at his postings. He was a Walker fan, and also guilty of posting articles that you had to click the link to read the entire article.

Logs/motes, whatever.

Another ‘excuse’ thread for the impossible: Trump losing AGAIN this time WI,
ping!

Now its sellout, before it was cheating, before then it was voter fraud.

Every loss its another excuse. Because Trump can’t lose.

But we must support Trump or if he loses they will riot or help Hillary get elected, or both.

Whats that rule about paying hostage takers??

We’ve already reached third world status, looted on a daily basis. Watching a few American innovators being burned over the years even though they had patents is another reason for our decline. Foreign countries violate our patents with impunity. The uni-shock for motorcycles was invented by an American designer. All four Japanese motorcycle manufacturers violated his patent. That was an interesting story, jury awarded him 7 million dollars and the judge limited the award to $50,000. Realistically, the US should have punished them severely for this.

Why not.

They still believe that even though Trump may not get the magical 1237, he should still get the nomination, “Cuz they angry at the GOPe.”

It’s amazing that Trump is even close given that a sitting gov and former veep nominee are propagandizing against him 24/7.
