Governor Walker presented a very balanced set of cuts and revenue increases that the GOP super majority controlled legislature refused to address. On a state and national level control of the congress by obstructionist Republicans has brought the business of the nation to a halt. The Party over Country current version of the GOP operates on a caucus basis that forbids anyone from acting/voting contrary to the agenda presented it by the super pacs/ALEC interests that write the legislation and set the agenda. You do see the difficulty in getting legislation voted on in committee let alone make it to the floor for an up or down vote when the legislature is representing corporate interests rather than the best interests of the state and nation doncha Alethia?
