Wisconsin is one of the most segregated and polarized states in the country. It's split between pure blue Milwaukee and it's pure red suburbs (the "WOW" counties).

It's also one of the more corrupt states. From Scott Walker level public theft, to a DA that actually exchanged light charges on drug gangs for charity donations. (Of course, all of the "donations" had to go to "charities" run by his friends in his municipality. That way he could make sure the money went to help "the children".)

What can I say? Wisconsin is crazy bad. But it's home for me.
