The citizens of Racine County Wisconsin have just bent over, grabbed their ankles, and exposed their pockets to be picked. Despite clear proof that school administrators gleefully piss money away, they voted YES on a referendum to allow themselves to be taxed in excess of the established caps.
There is one positive note in this. It destroys the arguement against the proposed Wisconsin TABOR, since the taxpayers will have the same opportunity to be conned into agreeing to being taxed beyond its limits as they already have with regards to school spending caps.
