The Walker Budget Is Already Working! Part IV

Yet another sign of the Walker budget at work before it's even signed, much less implemented:
A Wausau-based bank is cutting more than 20 jobs as the stagnant residential and commercial loan markets continue to take their economic toll.

River Valley Bank President and CEO Steve Anderson said Tuesday that lenders, customer service representatives and support staff members were among the people laid off from 14 branches. Other positions eliminated already were vacant, and bank officials have decided to not fill them.

"Revenues were slow and declining and expenses weren't, and we had to make that business decision," Anderson said.
Can you even begin to imagine the hell we're going to be in when the full brunt of Walker's budget kicks in? And to top it off, he's dinking around with the unemployment benefits. I'm sure it'll great consolation to you as you see your hungry children that some rich fat cat got a nice tax break just because they donated to Walker's campaign.
