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.
And I’ve got a toll bridge in Brooklyn at a great price for you. When did pledges become fungible!?
But in the wealthy suburbs, the theme is “not in my neighborhood “. Put the data centers where the investors live.
What Illinois needs is to require each of these centers to install the small nuclear reactor that has been developed for large factories.
It should be a state requirement for nonprofits to publicly disclose relationships or benefits to the proposed legislation when commenting on that legislation. If their donations come from related parties to the data centers, they should have to disclose it when publishing biased viewpoints. Additionally, while it is legal, their use of the state’s name in their title is misleading as if they are conducting official business of the state. Reader and taxpayer beware.
