Courting the Mardi Gras dollars did not prove profitable.

The problem with socialism is you eventually run out of someone else’s money.

This is the money that supplements law enforcement salaries, pays for roads, bridges, public schools, colleges and universities, provides healthcare for about 25% of the population...

Maybe that's the problem, 25% on government healthcare is ridiculous.

I bet most governors had NO CLUE as to the consequences of shutting down their states. These jerks overreacted with the herd looking around, seeing what their fellow moronic governors were doing and some saw it as a contest to see who was the more nuts.

Obviously, they need to raise taxes...that’s the only way to solve this (extreme sarcasm).

No sympathy for government budgets - none whatsoever. They need to live within their means just like everyone else. They’ll start whining about cuts to firemen, policemen, etc. when there’s plenty of room to cut bloated bureaucracies which they just won’t. Instead, they’ll go whining to DC for a bailout. That’s the grand scheme here. States like California, New York and Illinois that have been underwater for decades because of bad policies will demand FedGov make them whole so they don’t have to live with the consequences of their socialist failures.

Wisconsin is currently slated to lose TWO BILLION in tax revenue due to this lockdown.

Governor Evers (D, Douche, WI) continues to fiddle while Wisconsin burns!

They cancelled the EAA AirVenture which brings in $170 Million each summer to our state.

LIBERATE WISCONSIN!

Cops will be ordered out to ticket anything that moves. There will be DOT stops on every truck route. Every agency that can will send out code enforcement. They’ll be flying drones over your property looking for violations. They need money and this is how they will get it. Don’t doubt.

It’s all 50 states losing tax revenue. The consequences of this induced panic are nearly immeasurable. Probably the primary result will be hyperinflation, something the United States has rarely ever seen, if at all.
