Blaska’s policy agenda for the new year!
We are tempted to add Steve Martin’s Christmas wish list: “All the children to join hands and sing together in the spirit of harmony and peace,” followed by “Revenge against all my enemies, they should die like pigs in hell!” Pretty much covers the bases.
(If you missed them, the first 12 here.)
13) Return school resource police officers to Madison’s public high schools and add middle schools.
14) Statewide, universal school choice regardless of income!
15 Rescind the requirement that school district superintendents hold a doctorate in educational administration.
16) Body cameras for Madison police!
17) Allow school personnel to carry weapons on school grounds if licensed for CCW and live ammo training, to be registered with and indemnified by the district.
18) Commit to next-generation nuclear energy.
19) Build a knock-your-eyes out, sell indulgences to pay for it, landmark Catholic diocesan cathedral.
20) Prohibit political demonstrations in residentially zoned areas. Their purpose is intimidation, not sharing ideas.
21) Get government out of the public housing business. Local government built Rethke Terrace and Tree Lane — both became crime-ridden public nuisances.
22) Hold establishments that prohibit firearms without active screening financially liable for resulting casualties.
23) Erect a monorail from the Alliant Energy campus forking west to Camp Randall stadium and the Kohl Center and east to Monona Terrace and the State Capitol. Takes advantage of parking at Alliant and encourages multi-venue events. Its own tourist attraction with great views across Lake Monona.
24) Build the damn ☠️💣!! 🤪✖︎ jail!

With this, The Gotch may be of some help.
With intimate knowledge of UP adjacent Iron County and Saxon Harbor (a state-line straddling strategic asset of infinite importance), he could marshal an assault from there to Little Girl’s Point (a former rum-runner’s safe haven) & secure the coastal Porkies in order to establish a western beachhead.
He also has established INs with the Iron County Miner (Published Weekly, Read Daily with promise as a rural print reincarnation of Tokyo Rose/Baghdad Bob), Forestry-n-Parks and Registrar of Deeds county offices, and Pence’s Reinerio’s Sausage Company, with whom you may contract for provisions,
An army marches on its stomach, after all, am I right?
Anywho, package goods (40’s, Korbel©™®, & the like) with which to wash it all down?
It starts-n-ends at The Brite Spot II, located on the first block of Silver Street, Where Hwy 51 Ends And The Fun Begins!

We’ll post you to a tree stand outside of Hurley where you can peer over the border and report back.
Well considered and articulated! Hope you have a decent helmet to protect you as you bang your head against the wall advocating for the aforementioned. Best to you and yours in the New Year.

All good but will never happen except #23. If the City and County build a monorail and add lite rail and a Regional Transit Authority and maybe a trolley they could tax the residents to death and force all the cars out of Madison. It’s getting closer to look for another place to live.
