Breakdown on this misdirection of "rainy day funds" and budgets. Wisconsin's Real Financial Situation Explained quote: TOTAL FUND INVESTMENTS (From above list) -> $89,299,958,000
(LISTED IN TABLE 3 CHANGES IN NET ASSETS)
TOTAL NET ASSETS
-> $11,693,400,000 TOTAL ASSETS (CAPITAL AND INVESTMENTS) FOUND IN 2010 STATE CAFR -> $123,481,258,000
WOW!!!
Walker took office on January 3, 2011
+$342M trumps -$123M
Those actuarial calculations are the damages done by eight years of Doyle. Wisconsin would have been so much better off if they had elected Thompson, instead of that Union Jack-a$$. How about we stop blaming Republicans for the damage a Democrat did. Enough already!
Stop discussing the rainy day fund? No thanks. I know you'd rather discuss Seamus the dog or Mitt Romney's tax returns, but budgets and rainy day funds actually matter.
Sorry no interest in Mitt Romney, his ex-dog or tax returns.
Actually, the real accounting and financial records are what matters. That's like discussing someone's grocery list, utilities bills etc... Being happy they put some spending money in their piggy bank. Meanwhile, they don't discuss their massive investment portfolios, or really income for that matter.
They always talk about rainy day funds and how much they spend. That's so when they don't get the extra spending money they whine about they can go nm we “found” a little spare change to cover it.
This isn't a D or R thing. Look at the CAFR. Not these silly news pieces. Every one I have looked at year after year gets bigger and bigger every year.

What 123Mil? What damages are you referring to?
Interesting they have no 2011 CAFR. Fiscal year appears to end in June.
Notice that states that elected Republicans are doing way better than ones run by Democrats.
Of course in a way this hurts Romney since voters in those states won't connect the dots and realize that Republicans actually DELIVER on their promises.
It would be interesting to see how low-income people in particular are doing in these states.
For unskilled workers with jobs, soaring rents may well outpace any wage gains, assuming they even had any wage gains.
Republicand are usually very good for landlords, not so good for rent slaves.
Funny how much hate Walker gets around the country, yet the guy's policies actually seem to be working well.
Working for whom? Are they working well for burger flippers? Are burger flippers better off than they were when Walker was elected?
