WI company fined heavily by OSHA gets bigger WEDC sum

Ashley Furniture, the major Wisconsin manufacturer of furniture, will receive more than enough benefit in tax credits from Scott Walker's WEDC to fill any hole in the business's balance sheet caused by the federal fine recently levied by OSHA for more than 1,000 workplace safety violations.

Family members operating Ashley have contributed $30,500 to Scott Walker's campaign committee since 2010, records show.

I have noticed that ever since they were given those generous tax breaks that they have been flooding the air waves with commercials. I had never really noticed Ashley commercials before that.

Ok--- "so we can all agree he's a whore. Now we just have to negotiate his price..." And it seems like he's getting cheaper all the time!
