I think most people believe success in government is how many fewer people are in government, not because you kick them off of benefits like unemployment but theyve been able to control their own destiny because private sector employers have created more jobs. – Scott Walker

But I dont want massive layoffs of anyone – public or private. We are planning on shrinking government through attrition and reform, not through random pink slips. – Scott Walker

I hate big government, but I really hate a government that doesnt work. So when they say we either have to raise taxes or cut core services, its actually a false choice. – Scott Walker
