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.
Wiait till health care is free and entire towns line up at the hospital demanding their free doctor! This is nothing.
Services that they have a right too? The Declaration of Independence says Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. There is no mention of $25 copays in it.
It’s always the poorest who are the most unhealthy too. We talk about moral hazard but that even the concept is waaaaaaaay over their head; and even worse when they know they can get free, but substandard, gov.care.
Here’s an idea: How about the County stops providing awful substandard care to illegal immigrants, medicaid patients, and moochers? Why is that the county’s job? It’s really expensive, it loses money every year, and it’s paid for primarily by the citizens who don’t even use the system. And those who do use it, use it so much that they drive it into insolvency. Absurdity.
