Audio and summary 
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.
There’s always a red state to improve one’s mobility. Just leave any tendencies to vote Democratic in Illinois.

It doesn’t help that private interests that invest money ignore huge swaths of Cook County and the rest of Illinois. And in many cases it’s the politicians that are to blame – they direct investment to their pet projects instead of critical economic infrastructure.
It’s a misunderstanding of the issues to suggest they ‘ignore’ huge swaths of Cook County and the rest of Illinois. Its more like they’ve made the conscious decision NOT to invest here because there are better opportunities elsewhere.
