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.
“Working.” Sure, sure…
Brandon has more “ groups “ than the British Invasion once the Beatles took off.
That’s quite a big title. Let’s just say lackeys
The vast majority of the members are people with their fingers in the pot, not actual finance experts. I predict the sustainability part will go out the window as they work to devise ways to raise taxes, fees, and their share, while not even considering any cuts that could actually spur economic growth and sustainability.
Brandon’s “working group” is stacked with public sector bosses and martire but no elected alderman?? Truely Unbalivable!!
What a farce. Should be called The Coalition to Hike Taxes and Borrow More.
Crony capitalists, public union honchos, do-nothing civic groups and leftists — the same crowd that brought us the problems.
Well, ya gotta build a “coalition” so the ideas coalesce and then we need some “community organizers” to organize communities and then we need “faith leaders” to preach and pray for fiscal guidance (can i get an amen) to enable all who are involved to become rich and obtain the best and freest of meals and drinks while they meet and fill their calendars with focus group meetings and line their pockets with lobby money for the next year or so. Only to be completely forgotten and produce nothing. Excellent work Pin Head.
