18. He also claims there's a budget crisis in Wisconsin
. . . and that the budget plan will save the state money. Both claims have been debunked.

If this scheme is supposed to solve a budget crisis, why did the Republicans separate out a part of the bill to destroy the right of state employees to be represented by a union in collective bargaining? Weren't there more important things that would have actually saved money in that bill?

It sounds like Walker's Koch snorting scheme is as much about solving a budget crisis as the war against Iraq was about fighting terrorism.
