Hmmmmm?
Hey mofo, Im just quoting from this article.
"In reality, turns out that Wisconsin was the only state in the entire country to lose jobs in 2011, while Illinois had better than average growth. The Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia also predicted strong economic growth in Illinois, while placing Wisconsin last in its forecast:"
Notice everyone he really doesnt like to address the fact the fed is predicting Wisconsin to be LAST in forecast for economic growth. Not 47th or 35th or 18th. They are predicting them to be dead last. Now in a year we will see if this is correct and if
it is Im sure SeriouslyWrong will find a way to change the subject or deny it. He has perfected the art.
And then of course there is this.
Now, an economic analysis by Bloomberg finds that Wisconsin is getting its ass kicked by Illinois.
Illinois ranked third while Wisconsin placed 42nd in the most recent Bloomberg Economic Evaluation of States index, which includes personal income, tax revenue and employment. Illinois gained 32,000 jobs in the 12 months ending in February, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found. Wisconsin, where Walker promised to create 250,000 jobs with the help of business-tax breaks, lost 16,900.
It's conservative mantra that tax increases kill jobs, but reality, as always, contradicts their ideology.
Quinn is certainly having fun at Walker's expense:
Quinn was ready for the cross-border critique from Wisconsin, whose state’s employment fell more than any other. Quinn scheduled a news conference less than hour after Walker spoke to announce that LaFarge SA (LG), the Paris-based building materials maker, would move its North American headquarters to Illinois.
“They have the worst job record in the whole country, dead last,” Quinn, 63, said of Wisconsin. “We certainly don’t want to follow his prescriptions when it comes to economic growth.”
Walker was elected on a promise to create 250,000 new jobs in his state. Turns out that slashing spending, attacking unions and eliminating workplace pay protections for women ain't doing the trick.
That's why there's a recall.

When one brags about property tax rates one should answer for the failure to create jobs.
I have seen a number of articles here putting down Illinois simply because its President Obama's
home state. The hypocrisy is mind numbing.
