Wisconsin

Wisconsin: But just off the beaten path, a new debate is taking shape that has nothing to do with the culture war, taxes, or health care, according to MSNBC. It has everything to do with a basketball arena. Scott Walker far-right vision and national ambitions, Wisconsin is already home to some of the nation most contentious and divisive political fights. As sports fans know, the general outline of the story is all too familiar: a sports franchise wants an expensive new venue; it wants taxpayers to pick up the tab; and the team owners have made clear that without a new home, they’ll abandon the community and move the team elsewhere. Walker thinks that a great idea – and has a plan to offer $250 million in public funds to prevent the Bucks from moving elsewhere. That exactly what happening in Wisconsin, where the NBA Milwaukee Bucks want out of the Bradley Center, which opened way back in 1988, and also want a new half-billion-dollar arena.
