NY Times - Walker's Pretext

Walker is bringing out the wrath of the people because of his own bad choices.

The integrity of the unions has nothing to do with Wisconsin's deficit issues.

In addition the Governor has chosen to make tax give-aways to big business. If he chose not to do that, his deficit is much smaller.

NY Times: Gov. Walker’s Pretext
Just last month, he (Walker) and the Legislature gave away $117 million in tax breaks, mostly for businesses that expand and for private health savings accounts. That was a choice lawmakers made, and had it not been for those decisions and a few others, according to the state’s Legislative Fiscal Bureau, the state would have had a surplus.
