From James Wigderson, special guest perspective for the MacIver Institute.
"Doyle said, “Going forward, my mind will be open to every solution except one. We should not, we must not, and I will not raise taxes.”To read all the lies Diamond Jim gave us, please read, just a GREAT read.
Shortly after that speech, Doyle proposed to raise the nursing home bed tax from $32 per month per licensed bed to $116 per month per licensed bed to generate $13.8 million for the state’s general fund. More importantly, he vetoed the legislature’s attempt to freeze local property taxes, despite estimates taxes would go up 5.9%.
Since that inauspicious start, Doyle has increased taxes just about everywhere and on everything. From taxes on iPod downloads to the taxes on garbage, it would be difficult to find a tax that Doyle did not want to increase."
