Continuing WI smog sits where Walker won loosened air quality standards

Wisconsin's smog alert is back for a third recent day, so people with breathing problems and other cardio-vascular issues should definitely limit their outdoor activities.

Also - don't forget Walker's relentless war on cleaner air.

And please don't forget his final favor from Trump's EPA that loosened air quality standards in the Lakeshore/Foxconn zone.

Smoke stacks from a factory.
Big win for smog and Walker, as the Chicago Tribune put it.

And in a sad and sick irony, while none of the promised flat-screen big-screen TVs have yet to be made as we close in on the third anniversary of the multi-billion Foxconn boondoggle, ventilator-production to assist with breathing difficulties is on the horizon.
