Audio and summary 
If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.
We must save, distribute, preserve this graphic. A good candidate running against JB could have his entire campaign based on this one single picture. How sad what has happened to our great state over the last twenty years with the single party Dem control of everything we value.
I wonder where Illinois ranks on a list of most politicians and celebrities appearing in The Epstein Files. Probably very high!
We will find out soon enough. I read on Facebook that Attorney General Gabbard
has found at least ten “prominent Democrats” in the files and will release them once the Dems’ 2028 field is known. Very smart!
Great column. The pension crisis is a manifestation of the Illinois political crisis.
When you listen to Ted Dabrowski, you quickly realize that he is cool, intelligent, rational, logical, and above all, ethical. In other words, Ted is inconsistent with how Illinois is currently run.
The Public Sector has gamed the system and has destroyed the economy. The private sector worker is voting with their feet. Nobody comes back after they leave. The young college graduates are starting their working Carrers in other states. The public sector has robbed the next few generations with excessive pensions. Taxes must go much higher, and more businesses and workers will leave the state. Illinois is set up to struggle and fail. It is pure economics; the public sector gets overpaid for under providing substandard services.
When you vote in $hit year after year , it just piles up , smells worse and never goes away
It’ll change when voters stop electing progressive democrats.
Its not the voters its the voter rolls.
Bill, I’m looking forward to voting when I’m dead. At least I’ll get out once in a while!
