Milwaukee Group Denies Connection To Municipal Takeover Planning

Julia Taylor, the Executive Director of he Greater Milwaukee Committee has issued a statement denying any GMC involvement in efforts to create a Wisconsin law similar to a controversial new law in Michigan that gives that state the power to seize control of a local government in a fiscal crisis.

There is more information in an email from The Make it Your (MY) Milwaukee County Initiative.

Some background here.

*yawn*

Whoever reads beyond sentence number two

"The Greater Milwaukee Committee has supported the development of a fiscal stress test for Wisconsin municipalities."*

for other than "academic reasons" and believes whatever it says (I dunno cuz I stopped reading at sentence 2) needs a big ol' committee to administer Intellectual Competency Tests to them immediately. Do they think we're that dumb? Oh yeah they sure do.

*translation of Sentence Two for pplz who really ARE that dumb-
"We here at The GMC are in it to win it. Drop yer shorts and bend over."

Incredible post (and links). Honestly, how can any Wisconsinites truly trust what the pro-business groups and legislators are saying?

Julia Taylor has proved to be a tremendous disappointment, with a good reputation ruined by ambition.
