Blame Illinois exodus on jobs, housing, tax policy – Illinois Policy

Being one of only four states seeing population losses during the past decade is a big problem. It makes Illinois poorer and less diverse. It also exposes the deeper problems of jobs and housing.

At some point Illinois will be in the rear view mirror of many.

I personally know of 5 (FIVE) different young couples all making $100K+ between 30-40 years old all moving out of Illinois for all the reasons mentioned but unsaid being the way the mayor and governor handled this COVID-19 situation. Total government overreach will spook the everyday citizen.

if this “UNFAIR” tax passes I will be moving. period. cya IL ! and trust me I make a lot and am a law abiding, hard working citizen. Just can not take this anti US citizen and anti tax payer government and policies anymore there are just too many greener pastures out there. Its not just the taxes, I fundamentally do not agree with what the Leftists in Chicago and Springfield are doing and I do not agree in what they are pushing on us.
