13. Even though Wisconsin did more than enough to get rid of its deficit and be in the black through cuts, Wisconsin now faces a looming $1.8 billion structural deficit because Walker and the GOP thought it was time to play Santa Claus with tax cuts and now revenues aren’t matching up to expenses. Enjoy the 22 cents a day that Walker is touting in his campaign ads (because that’s what the average tax savings adds up to, although it isn’t being expressed that way in the ads. Go ahead, do the math.) 14. Allowing Walker to continue as governor will mean more years of a Wisconsin government that has no checks and balances. The reason the state is miserably gerrymandered, growing its debt and building an ever-larger structural deficit is because it suits Walker and the Republican legislature just fine. Things won’t get fixed by the people who are breaking them and their thinking doesn’t reflect Wisconsin values. Between a compliant GOP legislature and the fact that Club for Growth/WMC bought seats on the Supreme Court, Walker can operate with impunity and that is exactly what he does. It’s also why Walker truly owns his failures; he’s had every advantage.
