To: No Longer Free State
Ha.
Our own great blue state of Illinois doesn't have any entrenched poverty.
At least not much.
Or... well... maybe in just parts of Chicago... and maybe a few of the suburbs... and Aurora... Rockford... Joliet... Elgin... a bit of the southern part of the state... a little bit near the middle... and maybe... Urrrrmmmm..............

You forgot: East St. Louis
It's frightening that to get from Illinois to St. Louis you have to drive through one of the most blighted areas in the country. The worst parts pretty much surround I-64.
