Scott Walker’s New Plan To Cut $250 Million From Universities, Spend $250 Million On A Basketball Stadium
‘On Thursday, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker unveiled the latest plan for building a new $500 million basketball stadium for the Milwaukee Bucks, half of which would be paid for with taxpayer money, and half by the team’s current and former owners. Because stadium projects — including Milwaukee’s own Miller Park — have been known to run significantly over budget, the public contribution would be capped at $250 million.
This is exactly the amount that Governor Walker and his allies in the legislature plan to cut from the University of Wisconsin system.’
