Rex Sinquefeld, LOVES him some Scott Walker!
And now, with only five months to go in his re-election bid in one of the tightest races in the country, Governor Walker is floating the
idea of eliminating income taxes all together. There is no uncertainty
or anything vague about where Walker stands on critical state policies.
(His commitment to education reform is just as clear, focused, and well-articulated.)
Yes, I too just threw up in my mouth a little. Who is this Rex guy anyway?

Yes Yes a "free market" guy from Missouri who happens to have taken an interest in WI despite the fact he has probably never even visited here. Who is rex really?
Rex is a columnist who while writing about the successes of a political candidate,
has given said political candidate $75,000(how much money did you make last year?) in donations.
The author of an opinion piece in Forbes
calling the Wisconsin governor’s race “must-see political theater” has
also contributed handsomely to Gov. Scott Walker campaigns.

Sinquefield, who wrote that Walker is the candidate to keep Wisconsin
“on a path to success” has, with his wife Jeanne, donated $75,000 to the
Republican since 2011, according to campaign finance records.
When not making the case for trickle-down economics, Sinquefield has
been very active in Missouri’s Club for Growth — that state’s version of
the group at the center of the John Doe investigation in Wisconsin over alleged illegal campaign activity.
Those credentials are left off Sinquefield’s bio on the Forbes piece...
Yes that is exactly who he is! The guy who isn't sacred to throw around his moeny to get what he wants and ethics mean nothing!
