What is really at stake in Wisconsin (hint: it’s not just workers rights)

http://wonkroom.thinkprogress.org/2011/02/25/10-gop-disaster/

This is a MUST read, hats off to the folks at the wonkroom that put together the list of the crap in Gov. Walker's “budget” bill.

1.  Eliminate Medicaid

2.  Power plant privatization and environmental neglect

3.  Dangerous drinking water

4.  Fiscal irresponsibility

5.  Destroying wetlands

6.  Disenfranchising voters

7.  Cutting jobs, losing the future

8.  Stifling innovation

9.  Naked power grab

10.  Politicizing state agencies

While workers rights are important, the rest of the bill sets my neighbors to the east on a dangerous and unprecedented course.  Please surf on over and read the full article.
