Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
Utter, utter lawlessness in Illinois.
Shocking and sad; an absolute free for all.
Don’t let this public employee cop a plea. Prosecute before a jury. If guilty, bankrupt him/her with fines and take away a public pension. Confiscate any property acquired with the ill-gotten bribes. A major function of criminal law is to deter others. Jail time probably would cost more than it would help. Better (s)he should choose to walk the streets in shame or move far away.
Properties are only ATM machines for taxing bodies. The ability to pay these outrageous taxes are never considered. How many seniors have lost there homes to increased property values because they were unable to pay the taxes. Our governor seems to sign anything on his desk. Someone should sneak in property reform papers.
There everywhere in this state, corrupt employees now.
