Walker has all the right people against him.
If Mother Jones is against Scott you know he must be good for America.
Watch what a candidate does, not only what he says.
Haven’t we heard farmers talking about all the EPA rules, regulations and paper work that was taking all their time [= $]?
Below is ONE example of how Walker’s beating the environmentalists, bit by bit.
March 7, 2015 - Farm Bureau, others question Scott Walker’s proposed farm research cuts
“Researchers and supporters of a program that helps farmers run cleaner and more efficient operations say they were “stunned” and “blindsided” by Gov. Scott Walker’s proposal to cut a third of the project’s funding.
Discovery Farms, a UW-Extension program that dates to 2001, applies science from a “plows-on” level, evaluates and monitors efforts by state farmers to control runoff, calibrate fertilizer use and employ techniques to conserve land and water.
It has a $750,000 budget, of which $248,000 would be cut in the governor’s proposed state budget.
UW-Extension officials noted the loss affects longstanding projects and the ability of the small program to leverage crucial additional grants and funds.
“We would have a 1.2-employee reduction of staff and we would pull back some of our sampling efforts, water quality analysis and a project (set) for Rock County,” said Amber Radatz, project co-director.
The project’s programs include monitoring 20 state farms and educating thousands of farmers on conservation strategies.
“This was a big surprise to our agency partners as well as our partners in farm groups and in UW-Extension,” she said. “We never had an inkling.”
The $248,000 comes from a surcharge on farm chemical sales that would be discontinued.”................
Coming as it does from Mother Jones, it’s almost an endorsement.
>>Walker has all the right people against him.<<
From the Mother Jones article: “Probably the least bad is New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who at least acknowledges that climate change is real and caused by human activity.”
Another reason Christie is not on my list of those I’d consider.
How much snow in Boston did this author shovel this winter???
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (Formerly the Conservation Dept) has a complete stranglehold on residents of Wisconsin.
They need their wings clipped & permanently.
I grew up in Wisconsin. There were sand & gravel pits EVERYWHERE. I am pretty sure that such materials were used to build roads all across the state.
Is there anything taught to today’s kids about HOW those roads got there in the first place?????
