If someone knows how to contact Ben Stein...please show him this chart. He has had the audacity to claim that higher tax rates have absolutely no affect on growth...
And I'm going to laugh, and laugh, and laugh....
Elections have consequences...
But we Hoosiers DO THANK Illinois Democrats for sending us all those fleeing jobs.
But those idiots shouldn't for one minute think the Democrats couldn't do to Chicago what they did to Detroit.
First there was hope, now there is change.
He's a friggin' joke. Bloomberg's not much better though....
If you put these stats, facts, charts on Ill. news sites in every urban center, it would not change a thing. Ill. will vote Dem till the last taxpayer dies. Lemming voters like in Ca. do not like facts. They like multicultural lies and smears of anything that pertains to Pubs, tax cutters, spending cutters and entitlement cutters. Ill. will implode like Ca. and still they will vote Dem.
Looks like the Chicago School of Bureaucratic Socialism had a bumper crop of students when You Lie was Professor there!
Yessiree! There is no stopping Chicago-style Debt-ocracy! Roll Debt Roll !
Greece’s bonds touched 26 % this morning, so the Illinois debt-o-crats had better get busy!
-— and moving into second place is Gov’nuh Brown-as-dirt - - — .
Oops, sorry. Debt-sport-fever kinda overwhelmed me, I guess.
Anyhoo, Professor You Lie should be very proud of his adopted home state ( what is so funny about that? Hilly, our Secretary of Statements is from Illinois and she adopted a State. ) - - - .
Where was I? Oh yes!
” Illinois has chosen to make the tough choices.
We all have to endure shared sacrifices.
I know that 89,000 workers collecting unemployment checks doesn’t sound like much.
But believe me every penny destroyed means another millimeter deeper in THE VALLY OF DEBT.
Although I require Airforce One to raise against the enemy tea drinkers, I do not consider AF1 to be a Corporate jet.
That is ridiculous! The largest business in the world in the world is not a business.”
I put that last part in quotes so Professor You Lie can quickly pull it out and add it to his Thank You Illinois speech. ( I know he is busy now wring the speech that he said he was going to write. At least that is what he said in his speeches in 3 States.)
On top of all the idiocy that is going on here they’ve just approved a huge increase in the highway tolls. This will cost trucking companies millions.
These guys are idiots.
What a surprise to learn that Maryland is NOT the most business-hostile state in the Union!
That graph says it all.
Great graph.
Illinois, save yourselves. Kick 0 to the curb.
Kick the dems to the curb.
We keep hearing about these liberal $hithole states “imploding” but they still keep going, at least on the surface.
Show me a massive downsizing of their governmental overhead, or a large scale defualt on government “workers” pensions, and then I’ll know we are getting somewhere.
Bernard Epton was right! It’s too late now.
