On Janesville couple live modestly and wonder why governments don’t
Posted on November 27 at 8:36 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
This story is mis-titled. It should be called "Why the middle class is losing the class war."
A formerly middle class couple is worried about finances; the husband "had decent-paying jobs, but they didn’t come with union benefits, insurance or retirement," so they live on their social security.
And "Their savings took a hit when their son was hit by a car. They paid off what was left on the $1 million medical bill after insurance covered its part."
What's wrong with this picture? The lack of decent health insurance and jobs that offer adequate benefits including a retirement program. And the cuts in funding to local governments by Scott Walker, forcing local governments to raise taxes and fees or be unable to provide essential services. And overly expensive health care and health insurance companies that make obscene profits at our expense.
These are the things that have them in a bind and they don't even realize it. People need to wake up to the real problem. It's called class warfare. And the bottom 99% are losing.
On Lund is a double victor in Edgerton races

There's no real difference between Lund and McIntyre. These are the same guys who have been running things as the town has gone downhill. You can't keep electing the same people and expect different results - that's the definition of insanity. But when new people try to get involved the old boy's club shuts them out. I voted all right - I wrote in my votes - but most people voted for the "old boys" they knew. And I'm sure the appointments - including city attorney - will all stay the same as well.

What a joke - too bad nobody with any brains ran (or voted). Instead it's more of the same. And they have to do the new city hall why?

This election was a joke. Change? What change? Lund has been on the council the entire time the town has gone downhill and followed the crowd every time. He never met a bad idea he didn't like. Things will only continue to decline.
On Edgerton tabs committee to design new city hall

This should be a hoot - perhaps they never learned that "a camel is a horse designed by committee."
On Edgerton narrows its city hall options to two

As an Edgerton resident, I know this whole thing is an expensive boondoggle. Inexpensive options are available but the City Administrator wants her own Taj Mahal and has been pushing for it ever since she got the job. She doesn't care how much it costs because she doesn't have to pay for it. She takes her big salary and benefits and drives home each night to Madison.

On Mercy leader learned ideals at a young age
Posted on January 20 at 12:37 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
Javon Bea is promoting himself and Mercy because he knows they can't handle the competition. The specialists at Mercy are a joke and when they screw up Javon doesn't do the right thing and help the patient - instead he tells them to sod off.
