The June 4, 2015 deal called, "It is Cheaper to Keep Them"signed by Scott Walker, Governor of Wisconsin, was/is BOGUS.  He failed to consult with the people.  He and his GOP representatives (DEMOCRATS were not included) failed to ethically address the sensitive and costly issues of the NBA Bucks Arena and the seige of land and massive benefits by Herb Kohl, Marc Lasry, Wes Eden, developers and investors.
