This bad news comes after homeowners scratched to pay the final installment of the largest property tax hike in Chicago’s history – $589 million phased in over the past four years to pay for pensions for the city’s police officers and firefighters.
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.
Taxes will double every 5 years for as long as you live.
The pension debt is only growing like a cancer. It will kill everyone who gets in its way.
