Get the woman to a barber. Business community can’t take someone seriously when they present themselves groomed as circus clown; not an “equity” issue, not a “cultural bias” issue.

Another program, another budget, more employees and at a time when the State is broke…where does it ever end?

Nzinga states– “The finish line is equity.”?
Or in other words, the final goal is not equality for ALL but an endless equity handout rewards for the few. This is the new Illinois dem machine government model, where you have those of the Illinois gov upper class, with their GUARANTEED- jobs, benifits and outlandish pensions, who live in a dreamy world where by and large debt & accountability is always somebody elses problem dictating and picking equity hustle winners and looseres from us peasantry who have NO GUARANTEES for whom words like debt, accruals, value, thrift, economy still matter.

So that’s the State’s new ‘thought leader’? That’s just frightening.

The concept of a State “thought leader” in itself is truly frightening.

More of an attempt by Pritzker to pander to the permanent victim class in exchange for votes. He is creating another patronage army for those who refuse to work. Illinois is over.
