Everybody needs a side hustle these days, and mine is Ukraine, where I am now.
-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Audio and summary 
If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.
We gripe they don’t do anything. We gripe when they screw everything! Maybe we should demand they do nothing and shut up.
Ha ha ha. Clowns
Another fine effort by the Pritzker administration. Can’t even run a simple lottery fairly and responsibly. Hard to figure where this screwup ranks– ahead or behind–IDES? School closings? Destroying high school sports? Failed energy legislation? Phony ethics reform? fraudulent gerrymandering bills? Failed graduated income tax proposal? Disastrous payout of rent relief? Hiding Covid stats? Plus how many more. The scoring system is difficult when the list is so long. You have to wonder if the guy is in the right job.
The lawyers will $feast$ at taxpayers expense on the incompetence as usual….nothing new
Failed Property Tax reform!! It was one of the first Tasks Force created and what are the results. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Think of what was done though. Transgender rights-expanding abortion options-McCormick Place Covid overflow fiasco-$45B road fund boondoggle including doubling of gas taxes-license plate increases-trailer plates increasing by 555%-new or increasing of at least 20+ taxes in a short time and no reforms.
