-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Mark joined Dan and Amy to talk about the fallout from the unanimous Supreme Court ruling striking down Illinois and other states’ attempts to keep Donald Trump off the ballot, the power of special interests to get what they want during off-year and primary elections, why Illinois is a moderate state that’s stuck with an overly-powerful political machine, the latest news on the illegal immigration crisis, and more.

If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

DON’T CARE………JUST SEND THEM BACK TO THEIR COUNTRIES…….PERIOD
IL has 500K illegals already.. and apparently a couple of millions of legal residents that don’t care enough to vote those out of office that enable them, won’t cooperate with ICE, find them shelter and non- taxed employment, etc.
What I find most offensive is that American citizens fully screened by the TSA are bumped from planes by unidentified border jumpers given a future hearing date for asylum and a plane ticket, cell phone and shoes by “homeland security”! What could possibly go wrong?
This is the end of America, people don’t see it, or won’t believe it. But this massive, mostly male, influx of illegals is really an army. An army that will be absorbed by the US military, and that transformed army will be turned against the citizens. Because unlike American soldiers, these people will carry out an immoral order. The 30 to 40 million male illegal immigrants that have arrived so far will comprise the force to finally end America. The number so far has reached the population of another California, the largest state with one of the largest economies in… Read more »
Nah, they’re no army, they’re just an underclass of criminal gangs that will turn entire city neighborhoods into barrios and favelas. It’s more like 10,000,000 in the past several years, not 30,000,000. They’re not organized or disciplined enough to be an army. They’ll each knock up 2 different women for a total of two or three illegitimate children per migrant (most already have illegitimate children back home too, the out-of-wedlock rate in South America is the highest in the world). So they’ll add 20,000,000 to 30,000,000 new Democrat voters, and flip the purple states blue. The hispanic support for Donald… Read more »
Yep, I agree Rick. The serious potential is there for this scenario to unfold. I mean, really, even if only .01% of the men illegally crossing into our country were part of a brigade sent to enter the country, slowly arm themselves over the next year and wait for orders to assemble and attack. That’s 100K men. This will go down in history as the single most damaging action taken against this country and awful part is that our own weak-stupid ass government did it with the support of the Soy Boys. I watched the video from the link…my God…is… Read more »
.01% doesn’t equal 100k men. Just another ignorant doom grifter that can’t perform basic math. A billion men young men haven’t illegally crossed the border.
Yep, should have been 1% of 10M, typing too fast. Thanks for the correction. The name calling is unnecessary though….
