Illinois received $131 billion in federal spending in 2017, but because the average household is wealthier, the state’s net position was negative $364 per person, according to a recent report from the Rockefeller Institute.
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.
For the first time in my life, I’m refusing to answer the census. I hope Illinois loses population and representation.
Right behind you, will not answer census either.
