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.
What a bunch of statistical illiterates at CBS
“New business licenses are on the up and up. There were a little more than 4,000 in this same timeframe in 2020 but more than 5,000 this year.”
Ok, how many were there in prior years?
2018 (01/01-10/01): 6,659
2019 (01/01-10/01): 6,435
2020 (01/01-10/01): 4,084
2021 (01/01-10/01): 5,149
Based on this it looks like 2021 is down 20% from 2019, nice way to cherry pick data.
Lol! record vacancies, homeless everywhere, murders left and right and CBS says all is looking very positive is ch 7 now writing for ch 2! Is that an FCC violation?
