Scott Walker is offering top pay for the vice-president's job (and you get a private-sector title) at his newly-privatized Commerce Department/Development Corporation equal to what some of his Cabinet secretaries get.

Ain't it a wonder how our "broke" state can afford big payouts to the "right" people, but can't afford decent pay for public employees or health insuramce for poor people or tax credits for low-income working heads of household?

To save money privatize the Tommy Thompson Commerce Building and the Tommy Thompson Center at State Fair Park and all the other crap named after our former but still living governor. Why is it that Repubs name so much stuff after themselves? Is there a Lucey, Earl, Doyle or Nelson building? I don't think so. Wisconsin is the home of Imperial GOPvernment.

Spending more taxpayer money on "commerce" at the Tommy G. Thompson Commerce Building. Walker learned about commerce as "asst. manager" at Judy's Red Hots hot dog stand at 27th and Kilbourne in Milwaukee. Tommy learned about commerce at a frat house on Langdon St.
