Gaylord Nelson, the late Wisconsin governor and senator, would often confide to friends that if he were king he'd make it tough for big, smoke-belching manufacturing plants to locate in the state.
To say that publicly wouldn't have sat well with the state's business gurus. Nelson would have been pilloried for having an anti-business attitude and holding back the state's economy, but he firmly believed that Wisconsin was a unique place, a natural wonder that needed to be protected for eternity....
Ken Notes: We need leadership on environmental protection that, like Gaylord, understands business and can get things done.
