Ted joined Jeff Daly to discuss why Illinois’ property taxes are such a national outlier, why Illinoisans are forced to pay the high, guaranteed salaries, benefits and pensions of the government class, why Illinoisans aren’t getting their money’s worth for what they pay, the teachers unions’ influence over elections, and more.
A set of state lawmakers want to extend CPS’ current school closing moratorium to February 1, 2027 – the same year CPS is set to transition to a fully-elected school board. That means schools like Manley High School, with capacity for more than 1,000 students but enrollment of just 78, can’t be closed for anther three years. The school spends $45,000 per student, but just 2.4% of students read at grade level.
Hopefully, all media will get the message, in Illinois, too.
Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about Illinois’ highest-in-the-nation property taxes, why lawmakers don’t want to touch the tax’s cost drivers, just how much Illinoisans’ tax burden has grown over the decades, why Gov. Pritzker failed to meet his promise to reform property taxes, and more.
She wouldn’t dare put an illegal alien in jail, no matter how many rapes, murders or thefts they commit or how many parties they attend
The same jail that’s letting rapists, drug dealers, gangbangers out just today?
Yes the words that flow out of this baby Hitler never seem to make sense. As for her bad hair cut, I guess she had it cut that way because her wife uses her head as a ashtray stand while little mayor is carpet cleaning.
Outraged she/he says! As of 6:30PM Sunday, 5 shot to death, 39 others shot and wounded. Outraged! Did you see the video of he/she chastising so yutes about being out and no social distancing? One of the yutes told her to go home since she was violating the “rules” and another called her “bald head ass”. He/she promptly was escorted to her vehicle and driven away. Outraged!
Unreal!! Imagine if the Angry Troll had that much fire in her belly about corruption, shootings on the West & South sides, drugs, unfunded pensions, crumbling infrastructure, and all the other things plaguing her fine city.
What a joke!!
She can only threaten and berate (typical fool telling us how she knows better) those of us who are law abiding citizens… The P’sOS who have destroyed the city don’t give a hoot about her nonsense…
What good is jail? Fix and Evans will release them.
When this is all over the trial lawyers are gonna make a fortune on theses states and cities theres no laws saying you must stay six feet apart or not have parties
Stalin would be so proud of her
I went to a wedding reception yesterday, everyone stayed apart except immediate families. The police can’t arrest you if you are having a party, if you’re all spaced according to the spacing laws.
someone call the space force!
Wait a minute.
Were not the same progressive folks advocating letting actual criminals out of jail to prevent them from getting the disease?
So Lightfoot is going to punish people who she believes are putting others at risk
Of spreading the disease. into jail and increase the party goers risk of getting the disease that………never mind.
Progressive logic is not …it just isn’t.
Don’t think about it Morty. In all seriousness, it should be alarming the sheer number of people who simply accept this sort of logic.
I know, they’re freeing actual criminals from jail, to free up space for healthy people who haven’t committed any crime other than cross Lori or Jabba. It’s like mother Russia all over again!
You belong in jail you stupid tax payer!The dems hate you sane people,They don’t want your money ,They want you gone right winger.Take your god with you.Our homos,baby killers,and every bodys home we took from them with high taxs { The home owner gets to keep the empty shell and the dirt.] That is all we need to have our sewer pit and make them happy.
