Wisconsin is one of the highest taxed, yet I'm at a loss as what to show for it. Well, they DO bus the inner city folk out of Milwaukee to jobs in outlying underpaying communnities. One would think with all this revenue that they wouldn't have to have closed down the waysides (with restrooms) along public highways. Nothing else says "Welcome To Wisconsin" like closed public waysides along the highways!

Nothing else says "Welcome To Wisconsin" like closed public waysides along the highways! In Vermont we are spending millions to upgrade and enlarge our highway rest areas, which are still nothing more than a bathroom and a lobby with VT tourism info. Meanwhile, NY has highway rest areas with convenience stores, rest areas, and gas stations. I'm sure these areas pay for themselves AND provide far better service to the traveler. God forbid, however, that VT allow the evils of corporate greed to taint our road ways.
