With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too
-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Audio and summary 
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.
““One of the things that it’s clear to note that the working group fully established that we do not have a spending problem in Chicago. We have a revenue challenge in Chicago,” Johnson said.”?
And that is one of the Most Famous lines used by Democrats before Raising Taxes.
Hold onto your wallets Chicagoans, you’re about to get pickpocketed once again…
Correction:
Thousands of City of Chicago employees make $100K or more and work an average of less than eight hours a day on the job. That’s a huge spending problem.
Anyone spending like Pinhead is going to have a revenue problem. And this guy used to teach our kids? No wonder they don’t know anything.
So why even bother with the d&p show– “budget working group” or Ernst & Young $3.2 mil study? BECAUSE, THEY CORRECTLY ASSUME TAXPAYER/ HOMEOWNERS ARE EASILY FOOLED DOPES!!!
Nothing but BS.
