The new governor intends to cut spending to save money in the future but also cut revenue at the same time seemingly by the same amount.
Specifically, he plans to provide total tax forgiveness for two years for any major business moving to Wisconsin. It's his hope that measures such as these will help to create 250,000 jobs. If successful, the tax revenue derived from such an increase in employment plus the decrease in state entitlement payouts would more than offset any shortfall from the measure itself.
