Your article is interesting and provocative, but I believe your unemployment numbers are misleading, something I'm sure you wouldn't want to do, since your mission is to "report on spin and disinformation." Actually, Wisconsin's unemployment rate has declined steadily since the beginning of 2010. See: http://ycharts.com/indicators/wisconsin_unemployment_rate April 2012 is the most recent date for which data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics is available, and the rate was 6.7%, compared to 8.2% for the U.S. as a whole today.
