-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
Illinois paid the price for embracing Fauci’s “science.” Here’s the retrospective.
This budget really should be getting more attention in the media. It is quite literally the same as the teenager who continues to spend on a credit card hoping and praying that at month end when the bill comes mommy and daddy will pick up the tab. I suspect this is how JB Pritzker grew up so for him this is no biggie but for the rest of us in the state this is beyond irresponsible.
Also, rest assured the ratings agencies are giving Illinois a pass on this years budget given the pandemic but you can bet when this is up for review next year it is downgrade city to junktown. I think JB will be riding his golden parachute else where and we will all be left holding the bag! We will have the fun distinction of having the worst financial profile of a state likely since the Confederacy.
