About That Awesome Walker/Wisconsin Income Tax Cut...

Despite the hoopla and Hosannas from libertarian ideologues and harder-edged Tea Partying government-haters, the presidential-dreaming Walker state income tax cut is so small per capita that it only puts an extra $87 a year - - less than seven extra quarters a week - - into the pockets of Wisconsin workers who make $45,000 a year.

I'm told a nice bottle of beer at Lambeau Field or Miller Park is now in the $8 range, making the Walker tax cut something of a flat event, fiscally-speaking.

The kicker in all this: the geniuses in Walker's administration chose not to do the detail work needed to make the cut automatic with the recent state budget approval, so people won't see their windfall until 2014.

Walker regime M.O. - - talking points and press releases first, details later.
