Wisconsin loses thousands of jobs while Walker remains delusional about his failures in own fake report
Scott Walker is doing all he can to change the subject that Wisconsin lost an estimated 6,200 private-sector jobs in April, which is the second consecutive month of private-sector job losses in the state.

Attempting to distract from his worst-in-the-nation jobs record, Walker uses his own rules to “cook the books”

Six months of private sector job losses not stopping Walker from saying he’s creating jobs on Fox News
It sure looks like Walker’s record as governor attacking the working class and rewarding his political contributors with tax loopholes and kickbacks isn’t working out for the people of Wisconsin.

Walker’s campaign promise of 250,000 new private sector jobs by 2015 looks like it’s not going to happen
When Walker became governor, the unemployment rate in Wisconsin was 7.3%. It’s now 7.8%. Walker’s promise of creating 250,00 private-sector jobs by 2015 is seen as impossible, thanks to Walker attacking workers and drumming up enough negative headlines that would make any sane private sector interest look elsewhere to locate… Read the full story »
Walker wants anti-consumer “Jobs” bills made law helping his corporate donors while not creating new jobs
Let’s say you won a lawsuit case where the company you sued owes you money with 12% interest if they don’t start paying you back. Walker wants them to only pay the prime interest rate (currently about 4.25%) plus 1%. Who does that help? It helps the person or corporation… Read the full story »
