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.
Of course it did. It worked and was of benefit to citizens and tax payers…well, we can’t have that now can we! All that government can do is penalize tax payers and enrich their donors. Cancellation of this program was all about eliminating a drain of funding not going to CPS and STU. That’s all. Has nothing to do with the effectiveness of the program, it’s popularity or the cost…it just wasn’t going to CPS or CTU and they couldn’t control it This gave parents a choice and as we all know…you can’t have that… Pathetic.
