No argument with the cesspool reference but its not limited to Chicago only. I lived in central IL for almost 30 years. The corrupt democrat party runs tne majority of the state. IL voters will say yeah but we had a republican governor. Rauner is a liberal (Dartmouth, Harvard grad) who found it politically advantageous to put an R after his name. Much like Romney (hedge fund manager).
Thanks for pointing that out to me. Please consider my comment amended. Happy Thanksgiving and many blessings to you and your family.
