Will let you google tax incentives for the paper industry. Too many to even begin to list.
Now, show me where the state is bankrupt without the means to raise revenues......Citations please
Thank GOD...a state that does not tax the same money twice which is what an estate tax is.
And again...WHY should taxpayers continue to pay ever more...more than what they themselves make and have in benefits? I have yet to see a good answer to that.
As far as incentives to industry...industry brings profits into itself. Those same profits are taxed. Tell me...what profit do these teachers bring in? Wisconsin 8th graders fall below the norm when compared to other states when it comes to reading.
Hold on, you asked for ways to get the revenue needed. I gave those to you. I simply asked for you to give me links to where you have facts that the state of wisconsin is bankrupt without means to increase revenues. Do you have any or are you blowing smoke out your ass AGAIN.
Come on now. you are always running your mouth asking for citiations. I've asked you for one and it hasn't come. Where is it? Could it be you don't have one? Could it be you are full of shit?
Yes...you gave me a way that Wisconsin could raise one. That was not a citation, that was an article answering the question "Does Wisconsing have an estate tax". The answer was "No, Wisconsin does not". So, in your progressive mindset, stating that if they put one in, they would stop going broke is a citation.
Based on that, I gave you an answer that matched your efforts. The people of Wisconsin do not WANT an estate tax. If they did, they would have voted for it. Unless you think the legislature should just put a new tax on the people so they can pay more for something they are already paying taxes for? Or do you think that calling it an "estate tax" when the money is being fueled into something the voters already pay a tax for would make it more palatable?
However...I owe you an article so here's one that is a bit better than the one you gave me.

Here's another one for you...

And some more for you to digest:
- According to a study by the University of Rochester and Northwestern University, there could up to as much as $3 TRILLION in unfunded state workers' retirement liabilities. This comes out to about $26,000 worth of debt burden for every family in America.
One reason for the problem is that state governments have historically been very generous with the way they funded the retirement plans of their state employees. According to the U.S. Labor Department, state and local governments paid $3.04 per hour toward each state employee's retirement in 2007 compared to $.92 that private companies paid for their employees.
