Cutting bus service
They are cutting bus service in the Wausau area. Is this going on in other areas of the state? And of course the righties are ecstatic because "why should their tax dollars pay for someone else to ride". Than they complain about people who don't work but don't stop to think they can't get to work without the bus.

1. big issue in milwaukee
compounded by the fact that the jobs are in the suburbs and a whole bunch of the unemployed are in the central city.
They will say the fact that many folks in the central city happen to be of a different race has nothing to do with it
:sarcasm:

supposed to have that little sarcasm thing there--i have bad luck with them.


soon the walker will say that he has created enough jobs it is just that the poor are too lazy to work.

2. those same people seem blind to the fact that tax dollars
of poor people who have no cars help build and maintain the roads they drive on.
