Matt Rodewald, Illinois Opportunity Project: "The Tax Hike Amendment has everything to do with taxing retirement income. After doubling the gas tax, streaming tax talk, a bag tax, a parking garage tax, higher fees for vehicle registration, the process of elimination makes everything simple. They're running out of ways to tax you."
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.
