The Milwaukee County Board, made up of "elected by the people" supervisors do not seem to know how to do things right, or that is what Gov.-elect Walker says by submitting 15 veto's today to their "passed by the county board" annual budget. Again, it appears it is not right unless Gov.-elect Walker made the call...
Among today's vetoes; an elimination of employee pay increases, moving the county employee pension contribution to 5 percent instead of the 4 percent approved by the board, and striking language for a county contribution to employee flexible spending accounts.
In other words, Gov.-elect Walker likes to negotiate so long as the only proposal on the table is his proposal. This seems to coincide with his statement that he is "willing to meet and talk to the feds" on high speed rail, but "he sees no scenario where they will change his mind".
I recall "one-man" circuses never succeeding in life. How far does he think he really is going to get with this "one-man, one-thought" belief?
