Matt Paprocki, of the Illinois Policy Institute: "Imagine this effect amplified under Amendment 1's passage, when government unions could abandon their responsibilities to strike over nearly anything they want for as long as they want. The elderly in state-run nursing homes would be abandoned. Public-school children in disadvantaged households would have nowhere else to go. Domestic violence victims would show up to government-funded shelters only to be rebuffed."
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.
