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.
Solve the Pension Crisis with a U Haul. Illinois is toast, a goner. Run for your economic life.
Move to Florida like all the many rich pensioners are doing. Enjoy the good life while all the fools stay in Illinois to pay for your good time.
I agree. I am looking at where to go SOON. In so many areas property values have skyrocketed like Boulder (avg home value over $800K) but here in Rockford the only thing that appreciated are property tax’s. I wouldn’t put in passed them that an exit (pension) tax for everyone who leaves will be implemented some day. Just like we cannot escape paying credit card/or auto loan debts when we move to another state. Anything and everything is now possible in ILL-ANNOY.
