Under current Illinois law, home-rule communities are permitted to assess a sales tax of their own on groceries, and Gov. JB Pritzker says he has no intention of ending that practice. “If they want to in Henry County, in Union County, in local towns and cities across the state, if they want to impose the 1% grocery tax, we will leave it up to them to do it," he said.
DNC approaching rapidly. Time for “Everyman Pritzger “ to start pushing taxpayer friendly initiatives until the January after it is over, when they will be recinded one second after midnight.

$200 a week is $2 a week is $104 a year. That barely buys four drinks and two large pizzas at my local pizza joint with tax and tip.
I know; I was being sarcastic … should’ve made that clearer.
