A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
The unions have already put a line in the sand: No government employee should lose even one hour of work to balance the budget.
And it’s the GOP who must be responsible. The Dictator’s reliance on tax increases before they’re passed, his refusal to make any cuts earlier, and his budgeting imaginary funds from the DC Money Tree were an example of responsibility.
The Dictator does not need nor want a willing partner. Why would the Democrats need a partner when they have the governorship, supermajorities in the legislature, the courts and the media. The Dictator doesn’t want a GOP partner, all he wants is a GOP he can bash and blame
The nimrods over at CrapitolFax want JB the Hutt to penalize southern Illinois since it was the GOP that caused the fair tax to fail. They don’t realize that if the Dems had simply voted for it, the GOP was powerless. Typical of that lot.
The poor Dictator! Government should never have to cut anything from it’s budget ever!
Mike Madigan and the Dems have run this state into the ground over the last 35 years. Now they are complaining that Republicans aren’t volunteering to fix it for them?
There is a way to cut out his frustration–Step down jag.
