" Doyle says state deficit to exceed $5 billion - JSOnline

Madison - Gov. Jim Doyle gave a grim assessment of the state budget Tuesday, saying the deficit would top $5 billion through mid-2011, making it by far the biggest budget gap in state history.

The Democratic governor also endorsed plans to impose taxes on oil companies and hospitals - ideas he has pushed for two years but that Republicans who controlled the state Assembly blocked. Doyle's tax proposals have a much better chance after last week's election because Democrats will now run both houses of the Legislature and the governor's office.

Doyle said he hoped to avoid increases in the sales tax and income tax, but could not rule them out.


To the republicans, democrats and uninformed voters that let this happen.

You know the old saying. Don't wish too hard for what you want, you might get it

Empty your pockets.
