Our Commander in Thief!

...No, not THAT Commander in Thief.. the one over the Wisconsin Army National Guard.. otherwise known as the Governor of Wisconsin.... King Jim Doyle. King Doyle has been working hard for years to get a "hospital tax" passed. It is exactly what the name says... a special tax on hospitals. It doen't even go to medical interests of the state.. it just goes to the general fund. King Doyle finally got his wish though, because the entire government is now run by Democrats. A 1.4% tax will be assessed against patient revenues to hospitals. The kicker of this is.. the Hospitals back the tax! Why? Because apparently the hospitals will recieve more medicaid funding because of the tax. The increase will bring in more than the tax bill.. so everyone wins.. except, of course, the patients. Ok, so where does that make Doyle the "Commander in Thief"? Let me continue. Even though the tax is a mere few months old, Kind Doyle is now pushing to increase the tax from 1.4% to 25%... once again, the hospitals back the tax.. but not for the same reason. You see, the stinking bit of rancid tallow, King Doyle has met with the leaders of The Wisconsin Hospital Association and told them that if they fight this tax increase, he will withhold medicaid funding from the hospitals. I swear, the only difference between Doyle and a Mafia Don is the letters after the "D" and the "O".
