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.
Maher is no friend of the right. He still hates you, deplorable, far more than he hates his own party.
Mr Maher’s question has been asked for several decades – The likes of deep thinkers like Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams etc also commented in their day. Of course since they were not Leftists, they were ‘canceled’ by the establishment media. Most telling to me is how Mr Loury expressed a very truthful comment to try and find an immediate solution to the crime crisis – he was actually trying to discuss how to mitigate the crime NOW.

Does anyone know where Oprah built anything in Chicago other than Harpo studios? This is the same for all athletes all over the country. What about the black music/movies stars helping out other less fortunate people. Handing out a… Read more »
Supposedly Magic Johnson invested near Roosevelt/?? k street perhaps 20 years ago. Not sure what happened after that
They already know the answer. It’s systemic racism and guns. No need to talk about the actual perpetrators, or the fact that most of the guns used are obtained illegally.
Acknowledging that fact would deprive them of their victim status which they use to bludgeon society into giving them that special protected class.
Obviously racist since it’s the truth
>>Why Aren’t Major Black Celebrities Asking Why Black People Are Killing Each Other In Cities Like Chicago?<<
It’s an “inconvenient truth” they prefer to just ignore…
Nothing to see here Bill. Move along.
