According to Right Wisconsin, I am the Daily Winner!

In his piece for RightWisconsin, Platteville’s Steve Prestegard wondered if Governor Walker would cave to the demands he accept a cash upfront deal from the feds that would increase Wisconsin’s long-term entitlement problems.

With our news today that Walker is rejecting the deal, Presty has his answer.

No.

Last week, Prestegard wrote: 

Thanks to Badgercare and the fact that most people work for a living, this state has one of the highest percentages of people with health insurance anyway. Free money would be nice, but there is no such thing as free money.  Walker knows this and should act accordingly.

Today we know that’s exactly what he’s going to do.

As someone who is not a fan of all of Walker’s work, I find this good news. The concept of fiscal responsibility with all of our tax dollars is a foreign concept throughout Washington and much of Madison. Trusting Washington to do what it says it will do is a good way to get stuck with responsibilities without funding for them.

I should probably buy a Powerball ticket … once I get back from the hospital after they put my dislocated-from-patting-myself-on-the-back shoulder back in place.
