Here’s an easy prediction… if the Republicans push through a big tax increase, they will not retain control of both houses of the legislature for the next budget.

    Ha ha ha… Glad in not a Walker supporter. Although I do want him to serve four more. By the time the next four are over the true damage will show. And what a great idea, put people out of work so Kevin can save $20 on his taxes. You really are a piece of… Work!
