Preparation for war is essential regarding North Korea, but there is still no need to assume war will happen. This remains true despite the latest extreme statements from Pyongyang, and now the White House. The Korean War armistice has held for 64 years.
In today’s economy, we need our cooperatives more than ever. Let’s build on what makes our cooperatives unique, rather than diluting the cooperative difference.
Jacque’s bill to prevent the UW Medical School from training resident physicians in abortions could likely cause a shortage of OB-GYN doctors in the state.
Walker bet on health care exchanges and against expanding Medicaid, which could hurt Wisconsin.
Second offense possession still a felony in Wisconsin.
The promise of sustainable new jobs is dubious based on more than the track record of both Walker and Foxconn.
Wisconsin taxpayers would subsidize each Foxconn job $230,000 to $1 million. These jobs would pay a third of what a family of four needs to live in the middle class.
In his frenzied courtship of Foxconn, Gov. Walker is prepared to surrender your water and air to the multinational corporation.
If Foxconn’s development site can be exempted from environmental rules that are supposed to ensure the clean water that is the people’s constitutionally-guaranteed right, then why not draw the same kind of privileged lines around the rapidly-expanding Wisconsin industrial-scale big animal feeding factories known as CAFOs?
Ryan is right — legal immigration strengthens the country. But an even stronger, merit-based system would strengthen the nation even more — as long as “merit” doesn’t simply become a beauty contest.
Perhaps a better approach to the debate over cost-sharing subsidies would be for our government to actually make an effort to follow the rules of Civics 101.
Ryan, Johnson, Duffy may have many questions to answer.
Its general is Betsy DeVos, keynote speaker at annual conference I attended.
Severing the century-old link between the Great Lakes and Mississippi River watersheds is the only sure way to stop the flow of invasive species from one watershed to the other.
State should proceed with caution on promise of 13,000 jobs.
There will still be skeptics, but lawmakers on hand Thursday heard how Wisconsin assembled a team approach to bring the Foxconn opportunity to this point. It’s a team that appears poised to finish the job.
The Foxconn deal is “transformational.” It’s a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.” And if you don’t like it, you can “go suck lemons,” the governor says. I’ll pass on the lemons. But I would like an independent analysis to chew on.
While the media were preoccupied with the fate of the Affordable Care Act, important news about Social Security, Medicare, and an impending federal debt crisis went unreported.
School choice backers donated generously to Walker, but he’s vacillated on the issue.
New York Times leaves out some of the story. Where’s that liberal media bias?
