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.

Massive fraud…massive mismanagement at IDES…losses surely the worst or close to worst of all 50 states–probably billions….and nothing/little (ie nothing) done. Everything in Illinois politically is the worst…total failure by the political class, private sector elite….and especially the non-public union taxpayers (i.e. “chumbalones”).

Once again, where’s Kwame’s investigation/report on IDES??
he’s too busy fighting trump’s policies in court.
It’s close to $1 billion that was fraudulently obtained from the state unemployment insurance fund. Money that the state in currently borrowing and paying interest on. $1 billion heist and the AG can’t be bothered. This state has no chance.
