Yesterday morning I listened to a radio program that sounded like a Town Hall celebration of Tom Barrett's Gubernatorial bid. It was broadcast live from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee.
The thirty minute portion I heard included Mr. Barrett's diatribe against Wisconsin's $2.7B structural deficit and his plan to end it which includes tax increases on "the wealthy." Here's what bothers me...
Not once in the first thirty minutes of Mr. Barrett's monologue did I hear a single reference to a spending cut. If I missed such a bombshell in the remaining minutes of the program, please let me know.
