With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

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.
Chicago restaurant owners,
Did you vote for the clown Lightfoot? If you did you deserve all from this clown! Live with it!
Not sure why any sane person would open a small restaurant in Chicago.
How come Lori isn’t imposing this on big box business? Ordering Target, Home Depot, etc to prohibit non-vacinnated entry.
Praying that it never gets implemented. Hope these restaurant owners wake up to this evil.
The number one thing they should be asking Lightfoot for is a presentation of the evidence used to specifically target restaurants/dining venues (and gyms for that matter). Have there been massive outbreaks of Covid among patrons of these establishments? Methinks no. How is it that Costco doesn’t have to ask for proof of vax when my 77 year old mother-in-law walks around Costco for an hour plus and picks up snacks at every station? Is that a „dining venue” at that point? Just gors to show how arbitrary, ridiculous….. and dangerous…. all of this is.
You must be new WakoLiberal logic
Your problem is that you are thinking logically.
That particular skill is lost on the current cohort of politicians.
Take for instance, the vilification of the unvaccinated. That one simply makes no sense at all, yet they are referring to the ‘pandemic of the unvaccinated.’
And the most heartbreaking of them all … pushing experimental inoculations on a generation of young people. “Heartbreaking” is the wrong word – ‘criminal’ is a more appropriate term.
