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.
We still have no transparency on what Pritzker and his family made from Covid and his lockdowns. Just for testing it must be $100M. Pritzker ruined ordinary people and small businesses in IL for politics and $$$.
And what does the $323M get us? A Satanic symbol/statue in Springfield. Is there room for a Moloch statue?

The irony is that fat boy doesn’t really believe in the progressive woke socialist politics. Pritzker supports it simply to polish up his credentials for the national audience and his presidential campaign. Born on third base and going through life thinking that he hit a triple, Pritzker isn’t smart enough to believe in anything but he has enough money to get the national press to believe in him. The suffering of Illinois citizenry and the near term destruction of the state is simply collateral damage.

Interesting … I thought it was a cousin.
I also understand that the Pritzkers donated heavily to Lurie and it’s gender-affirming initiatives.
Tip of the hat to RealClear and the Il Policy Institute. I wish the rest of the media would also expose politicians who have no inclination to represent the best interests of people in Illinois. Nobody should ever let a scum ball like Pritzker tell them what makes sense.
It must be nice to piss away $300 million plus to satisfy your ego. So much good could be done with that money but no, fat boy has to spend it like that.
He’s not just satisfying his ego, he’s fundamentally transforming the state into a progressive paradise, aka, a black hole in the center of the midwest.
“Illinoisans don’t need to go to California – California is already here…”
In the end however it’s the voters that decided to install a lay about, do nothing trust fund brat who fancies himself a socialist man of the people, a position no doubt crafted to help his family’s image problem of being billionaire class global elitists with fingers in every racket from health care, mrna vaccines, scamdemic testing, credit reporting to surveillance and tracking. All the information about who this dangerous leftist in the govornership is out there free for anyone to read, but in the end the voters of IL are willfully ignorant and deserve every ounce of pain coming… Read more »
