They cut schools, troopers, snow plows etc. to make us feel the pain.

But when it comes to spending, both the legislature and Walker are still spending like there isn't a crisis.

Walker has opened two gas marketing offices, hired more consultants with executive salaries etc.

The legislature flaunts our wealth with free vacations and perks, fancy buildings and subsidized food.

It's almost as if they are creating a 'budget crisis' on purpose to make us suffer so we will finally give in,  pay income tax and give them access to the Permanent Fund so they can go on spending like they want to.
