"We have large corporations. Seventy percent of large corporations in the city of Chicago — in the state of Illinois, did not pay a corporate tax," Johnson said during a television appearance Thursday. "And it's that type of restraint on our budget that has caused the type of disinvestment that has led to poverty, of course that has led to violence."
Brandon is laying the groundwork to implement the employee head tax and will say it’s justified because corporations don’t pay their fair share in income taxes.

Don’t worry Brandon. With nonsense like that spewing from your mouth you won’t have to worry about those corporations for much longer!

Chase out what is left of private business. The Illinois way is to ruin it for everyone and to benefit just a few.

Assuming Wikipedia is accurate, the 4 largest employers in Chicago are the U.S. Government, Chicago Public Schools, City of Chicago and Cook County. Bloated government agencies, hospitals and universities are the big employers in this city. Private industry has been fleeing the city for ages, along with taxes BJ so desperately wants.
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.
Corporations don’t pay taxes…they collect them.
BJ is a CTU socialist sheeple!!
No repeating the same comment over and over again, please.
He should talk to JB. Here is a man worth $3.4 billion that keeps his money offshore so he doesn’t have to pay taxes on it. What about it Brandon?
F-tard Johnson doesn’t understand that corporations don’t pay taxes when they have lost money or have done legal tax avoidance.
More importantly, BJ The Race Clown is the last one to talk about not paying what you owe the government
