With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

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.
3.12 at St Peters Costco in Missouri for me and it is still higher than when Biden took office
It’s still higher than it should/could be. Don’t forget the Illinois tax from July 2022 is going into effect in January, and then another tax increase in July 2023. Automatically increases, just like the politicians’ salary increases.
Something isn’t smelling right. Gas in nearby Wisconsin was always 30 to 90 cents a gallon cheaper than in the stations in illinois. Just returned from Beloit/Janesville area and the gas there is more expensive than in the border stations on the Illinois side. Something is fishy, elections coming and I wouldn’t trust the democrats as far as I could throw Pritzger. Behind the scenes hanky panky?
$3.48 in Beloit
$3.48 at 3 stations at Willowbrook & Rockton Rd, South Beloit. The Clark in Beloit right across the line at $3.58.
Election time is approaching. Many democrats fear what might happen due to the incompetence of the biden administration and what a joke pritzger is so on to a solution. Get those gas prices down. By November gas will be free, the democrat sheep will forget and the votes will pour in.
