Heads up everyone! Check what your state legislatures are doing..while we are off focusing on

[Peacetrain]

the "reality show" presidency.. In Iowa, it is a damn nightmare.. the republicans took over everything.. and they are doing away with collective bargaining.. .. it is crazy town out there..and it is all going on while we are being distracted by the hub bub in DC...

Truth is hard, but we have to be vigilant on many fronts.. and not just what shiny object is in front of us..

1. Iowa actually brought in Gov Walker, WI who killed our unions, enviroment, jobs etc.

2. Oh I know that.. look what he did to that magnificent research University.. Univ of Wisc! (Walker)

and Terry Branstad and the legislature.. are pushing the Wisc. disaster hard.. We were always so proud of our educational values.. and now they are going to kneecap research in Iowa just like they did in Wisc. Doing away with scholarships, that funded so much medical and science research.. for what.. Branstad gave the state away in tax cuts for corporations the last few years.. with no returns.. and it has bankrupted us almost..=Trickle down does not work except when you are going to the bathroom

3. Yup

Iowa is now Wisconsin's twin. We have had this for 7 years now. I hope to God the rest of the country does NOT copy our Koch petri dish.

4. jody, my state is being gutted and eviscerated by the crazy economics of trickle down..

People do not ever learn.. I love Wisconsin.. and Walker has done everything in his power to destroy the state.. and Branstad keeps coming back and doing it to us.. before we had a Democratic legislature that could curb some of it and keep us economically healthy..but now.. its just a nightmare and we are Wisconsin 2
