As 2021 gets underway with a new President and a new Congress, the best hope to truly stabilize the agricultural economy is not more exorbitant bailouts, but structural reform.
Milwaukee exec Jeffery Yabuki is 15th most overpaid CEO, study finds, making 428 times an average worker.
After its faculty representatives got caught pushing an apparently illegal work stoppage, Madison Teachers Inc. did what comes naturally to unions: It issued threats.
Why did 27,000 people pay for the chance to shoot a gray wolf? It’s certainly not for food.
General purpose revenues from the state are about $12,000 per student per year at UW-Madison, compared to about $6,000 at UWM and $4500 at the other 11 other four-year campuses, including Parkside. Clearly, there is a funding gap of Grand Canyon proportions.

Egg shells are never a very solid foundation on which to have a discussion.
Hupy’s donations to Ron Johnson attacked by Minocqua brewer and law firm losing business.
Three out of every four lawmakers who went through the historical Act 10 fight exactly one decade ago are no longer in the Legislature. So where are many of those elected officials now?
Under H.R. 1, states would be prevented from enforcing voter ID laws. While Wisconsin’s key voter integrity protection wouldn’t be banned, the state could no longer demand voters show identification to obtain a mail-in ballot.
As we close out Black History Month, it is disheartening to think of how many of the old racial fights remain or have resurfaced.
