I I don’t have the time I would like to dedicate to plan that State Sen. Jon Erpenbach, the MoonBat from Middleton is working on to end many of the sales tax exemptions in Wisconsin. This would raise the sales tax that we pay by some $3.9 billion a year. Erpenbach demagogues the issue by claiming that this tax increase isn’t a tax increase… How stupid do they think we are?
Since I don’t have the time to do this story justice, i am going to give you some links to my favorite bloggers covering this story. While you read their coverage, you can listen to Senator Mike Ellis go on a rant with Charlie Sykes. Ellis also touches on the story of legislators scamming the taxpayers by collecting up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in accrued sick pay benefits. (I love to listen to Ellis!)

Say, isn’t Mikey Ellis (RINO-Double Talk) one of those that stand to walk out of the Capitol with those hundreds of thousands from his “sick leave”?
Psst – I’ve got a not-so-little piece up as well.

Ellis doesn’t have to worry about the haircut sales tax … unless the Democrats want to tax his dry cleaner. That dead animal on his head was smoking.

I agree, I don’t agree with Ellis on a lot of things, but he is fun to listen to when he gets on one of those rants, especially when he is on the right side of an issue.
