Gov. J.B. Pritzker stresses education in $49.6 billion budget proposal while blasting a ‘virulent strain of nationalism’ in national schools debate – Chicago Tribune*

The real threat to America’s future is the children not being taught about the threat of oligarchy. This is particularly true when it concerns a great big fat oligarch from Illinois who just happens to resemble Jabba the Hutt…

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.
