I'm Movin' On....To Wisconsin

Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton-Messinger released his budget proposal for fiscal year 2014-15, and Republican House Minority Leader Kurt Daudt suggested that the proposal will have Minnesotans running for the Wisconsin border.

Will Minnesotans vote with their feet? We'll see. Until then, I've written a themesong for disgruntled taxpayers thinking about making the move. It's a parody of Hank Snow's I'm Moving On).

C'mon truckers and future tax exiles, Sing along:





I've loaded up my U-Haul van, and I'm headed to Wisconsinland
I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
They taxed and spent-so away I went
I'm movin' on.

Goodbye, Dayton I hit the road, Maybe Scott Walker will lighten my load
I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
The Badger State has a better rate
So I'm movin' on.

Dayton an' Baak want to tax and spend, I wanna tell em 'This is the end'
I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
We've been over-taxed and the state's been maxed
So I'm movin' on.

Or maybe I'll head to 'ole Fargo, head on over where the taxes are low
I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
I can't take no more, so I'm out the door
I'm movin' on.

Maybe the voters will throw him out, and show Mark what it's all about
Dayton's moving on, He'll be gone
We've had enough of the one-term Guv
So get movin' on
