You certainly don't expect consistency do you?

I forget the exact number but there are a WHOLE BUNCH of other states with a lower tax burden than Wisconsin has too. I wonder if John Lehman is aware of this fact as well.

We should have mandatory auto insurance. Instead, they want to raise the rates for those who buy it by increasing the minimums.

Amen!!

Doyle wants to raise the minimums so that the trial lawyers can sue the companies for more money without any extra added work on the lawyers part.

I don't disagree on the mandatory insurance Greg, but to use as a rationale that so many other states have it can also be used about concealed carry.

Aside from the obvious fact that requiring mandatory insurance is yet another nibble at our personal freedoms, does anyone know if this actually ended up passing?

Wisconsin has had the most affordable auto insurance rates in the nation due to the free-market choice of whether to buy their product or not.

Now, no longer a choice, your rates will rise--also a result of the higher minimums being mandated.

Congratulations, Trial Lawyers. Condolences, Taxpayers.

Is it officially no longer a choice? Do you have any links to any documentation on this so I know what to research?

Anyone? Or are you having too much fun making fun of a politician instead of actually figuring out whether this bill will affect the law or not?

I don't disagree on the mandatory insurance Greg
