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.
I thought the County provided free health care! Why he is now whining that free health care is too expensive? Yet when some hospitals in the area provide free health care – and lose upwards of $2,000,000 a month, or more, and go bankrupt, the state won’t even let them shut down!
Yes folks, this is the progressive utopia they have been hoping for since 2016.
I see no mention of the impact Chicago’s decision to be a sanctuary city has has on demand for health care. I can’t imagine that illegal immigrants are paying their fair share for their use of the system.
At least the county can receive some reimbursement from citizens who are on medicaid or medicaid expansion. The illegal immigrant gets no medicaid (although their citizen children do) and thus gets no reimbursement.
