No lights to turn off. They can’t pay the electrical bill.

If there’s unbiased justice, 2 of those 3 credit rating agencies should still knock Ill.Annoyed down to Junk, based on the $130 billion in unfunded pension liabilities.

The average retired teacher costs the state 2.2 million dollars. the average retired government worker 1.6 million. Is it any wonder we are bankrupt? I don’t want to move, but I think I am going to have to.

Or ...

There are 51 GOP house reps in Illinois. They could have blocked this clusterchuck of a bill.

Why on Earth would you expect a Republican to do the right thing?

Illinois has its very own swamp, slimy creatures of both parties inhabit it.

Just great..... More Illinois license plates in west Michigan.

I think I spend 25% of my day driving behind a picture of Abe Lincoln.

Now these Republicans are going to lose their seats. Because the conservatives will have already left or refuse to support them and the libs will just vote for the Dim replacement.

We still have room in Indiana for good people and companies.

But we might have to enact a liberal ban if we can’t vet them properly.

Illinois spends 3.85 BILLION annually on the care and feeding of ILLEGAL aliens. Correcting this mistake will help mitigate the Illinois money bleed.

Politicians are some of the dumbest people I know of. The best and brightest of society rarely,if ever,are the ones who go into politics. Running government is a serious matter and it’s left up to buffoons because most people who vote are just as stupid..
