The Koch Brothers So Sure They'll Own WI Power Plants That They're Already Hiring
Excerpt:

As Heather already pointed out, WI Gov. Scott Walker's budget fix bill also grants him the ability to sell off the state's power plants with no bids. The Kochs are probably hoping that Wisconsin legislators may pass the rest of the bill in hopes of saving collective bargaining.

Now, we can't know for sure, but it's a pretty good guess that the Kochs the ones who are apparently so confident they're going to own the Wisconsin state-owned power plants, they're already advertising to hire new plant managers!

Energy client is looking for experienced Plant Managers for multiple power plants located in Wisconsin. You need 15+ years of operations & maintenance experience in a power plant environment. You should have at least 5 years of experience managing operations & maintenance teams in an operational power plant. The ideal candidate has experience in a coal fired power plant. Salary is commensurate with experience.

1. Will it take a felony conviction of Walker to stop the give- away of Wisconsin's power plants?

3. While I hope this is true
I don't know what the connection between "Think Energy Group" and Koch Industries is.

I saw this yesterday and couldn't make the connection.

Sure would like to have this confirmed.

5. Funny how Randian Objectivists constantly hiss about "looters", isn't it?
The Kochs are quite a show, aren't they?

7. Yes, I've been trying to show people how Walker was going to pay them back
for their support. Crony capitalism is out of control and we need to expose it.
