Scott Walker will never hear about Jason Raasch, and that's how he likes it.

It could happen to any one of us; in a moment, our lives could take an ugly and difficult turn for the worse.

Is Badgercare there for us? Not if Scott Walker can help it. Is workman’s comp there? Not if business partisans can make it more difficult for people to get help.

That’s what’s happened in this state since Walker became governor. It’s bad for hard working Wisconsinites, and it’s about to get much worse. Don't come to Wisconsin to work, you were warned.

The following story also shows you how bad our private sector health care system has become. Hey, let’s get rid of the other burdensome regulations insurers and providers have to follow too:

WEAU: "You know growing up ever since I was little I always wanted to be a firefighter," said Jason Raasch. He had the chance to live his dream. But at just 26-years-old, he never knew all of it would come to an end so soon.

In June he was working at his full-time job as a tow-truck driver, inflating a semi tire. "I was in such shock, I wasn't expecting it to blow up," he said. He was sent to the hospital suffering from brain and neck injuries. And now more than six months later, that accident has changed his life.

His employer is refusing to pay Worker's Comp and unemployment, and when he applied for Badgercare, he was turned down. A fund has been set up in his name. We have details about how to donate below.

The fund has been set up for Jason Raasch through WESTconsin Credit Union. Donations can be made at any location. Other donations can be made through the following address:

    Good thing Walker doesn't know anything about this poor soul, or he'd probably just label him a "taker."

    This man is a taker. He most likely just shot himself in Hustisford and fabricated a story. Was flight for lifed after he claimed he was robbed and shot with a pistol. A bb was later removed just under his skin....most likely from a self-induced shot from himself!!!

    Well it was self inflicted according to the investigation. Not to mention he is being charged with fraud.

    OMG!! You must be kidding me!!! You can't find anything how about looking up Wisconsin courts!! I mean seriously you just search his damn name and you will find a lot of stories. Hell in 2009 he was claiming he had tumors and a bunch of other things wrong. It is ok cause since he has started a GoFundMe account he is being investigated on that by the Feds for fraud too.

    Still not much. But thanks. Guilt before innocence, for whatever he's done, which isn't clear. Faked injury from exploding tire?

    Whatever guys.

    I know this man's family. I was best friend's with his deceased mother. He has serious mental issues. His mother suffered for 4 years until cancer took her. He was a constant source of lies and drama and still is. He has a statewide warrant in MN out of Hennepin County, that means he can be picked up anywhere in the state. He also has warrants in Wisconsin and has since moved on to Missouri to scam people there. He needs to be stopped.

    Jason has been arrested in Nashville, TN while trying to get some kind of medial care at a hospital. He's being held on $250,000.00 bond and officials from Illinois are on their way to get Jason and take him back to Illinois.
