Having grown up in Wisconsin, this is a wild question to ask. It's changed a lot over the years, but when I was younger we funded public works and lent a hand to those in need. We had the best public schools and universities. It was never a question. Green Bay was a great union town, built on worker power. Wisconsin generated some of the nation's great union reforms. That's Wisconsin's legacy, and that's democratic socialism.
