Raumer’s nuclear option is a “government shutdown”, or in other words, a severe curtailment of its functions including layoffs of droves of state workers ... “Hey, sorry, it’s the law.”

As a resident, taxpayer, and Rauner voter, I wholeheartedly support shutting the Illinois State Legislature down until such time that the $111 billion dollar "debt" owed to public pensioners is settled using the un-paid state legislature salaries.

So glad I only have 819 days left living in this shithole of a state.

“So glad I only have 819 days left living in this shithole of a state. “

That’s how I felt when I escaped Mexifornia. I felt nothing but relief seeing it in my rearview mirror.

Will that be when you retire? (Since you have a set date, I’m assuming something of the sort).

We just up and left. Going Galt. Waiting around for a new job in the area we want or waiting even longer for retirement could’ve netted us being trapped with all the liberals and illegals when everything collapsed. PLUS, we wanted a new happy simple free life before we were too old to enjoy it. We went out on a limb, but so far - it’s working out.

AND we’re not paying into the corrupt fascist system any longer. If one have keep their MAGI low enough, with the standard deduction and exemptions, taxes will be minimal.
