Don’t fall for the “progressive-income-tax-for-property-tax-relief” tax swap referendum – Wirepoints
While this new advisory referendum could be nothing more than a political distraction, it could also be that lawmakers are gauging Illinoisans’ appetite for another bite at a progressive income tax hike – this time with lower property taxes as a sweetener.
I watched Tommy Dart screaming during interview on WTTW last week about how he was “ahead of curve” and “ outrageous” to question his pandemic response. He feels he’s being unfairly targeted. However, I wish the media would look into inmates voting on 3/8/20 and the spread of Covid19.
No social distancing, sanitizer or masks at polls.

Ironically, these inmates only have one candidate to choose from on the primary ballot ballot for sheriff. it’s democracy in action in cook county! (I know, tom dart wasn’t running this year, but you get my point).
