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.
I believe the $300 mil is JUST what city taxpayers have spent on the migrant mess to date and does NOT include the $478 mil allocated to migrants in state budget thru 2024, plus additional $65 mil state sent to Chicago (per state web site: https://illinoiscomptroller.gov/financial-reports-data/data-sets-portals/chartsgraphs/asylum-seekers). Plus whatever crazy sum of state medicaid $ are spent on the migrants…..all for 38,000 migrants??? INSANITY!!!!
Had enough…………SEND THEM PACKING!!
