According to a news bit on a Madison TV station last night, which was really more of a press release from the Bail Bonds industry than it was news, the future employment of Bail Bondsmen and Bounty Hunters will be a boon to the Wisconsin economy. Placed along-side the proposed deregulation of loan sharks, what's not to like about our dystopian future?
The grand, top-down, Libertarian experiment marches on in Wisconsin. I believe the architects of this attempt at social engineering are the ones who are really responsible for all of the alleged investment uncertainty. After all, while CEOs may support this experiment on an ideological level, the bottom line is that they will hold their corporate investment back until they see what the tangible results of the Wisconsin Shock Doctrine are. The truth is that this process may play out over a decade and there is bound to be significant social blowback before then. There is a difference between investing and gambling. Right now the Wisconsin economy is a coin-flip.
But the test drilling just began in the Penokees, and clearly that will save us all!
