"I have yet to meet an Illinoisan living outside Chicago who wants to pay more taxes so the state can continually bail out the city of Chicago. Over the last six months, there has been no shortage of billion-dollar funding requests from Johnson, and each time the mayor declares, 'The General Assembly must do more!' he is essentially asking for a blank check with no accountability."
LOL most of Springfield’s policies are wildly unpopular with most people, yet, here we are anyway.

Of course Brando wants a blank check with no accountability, that’s his whole shtick! The man cries racism anytime something doesn’t go his way, and has demonstrated zero ability to be a responsible adult in his life. Case in point, his personal credit issues. He is the shining example of what every parent doesn’t want his or her child to grow up to be. And Chicago Dems can’t wait to vote for the pointy headed idiot again.

Everyone pretty much knows Pritzker and the Leftists Democrats are just greasing the skids for the next statewide bailout, w/o any strings of reform or cost cutting, of a failed Chicago public union jobs program.

Suburban Cook county tired of being taxed for Chicago as well
Yeah your kind of screwed, unfortunate.
I clearly understand your sentiment, I also feel sorry for the people who didn’t build a house at the end of a runway and now live there because of new runways, they also got the Chicago bone job.

Downstate Illinois is not Chicago’s piggybank from a politician. I must be asleep and dreaming or something because I have never ever heard anything like this from an Illinois politician before.
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.
Yes they are.

On of the very few Republican’s in a carved out state that can survive.
