So, Frack; it WAS the brown acid?

I don’t live in Cook County, Frack.

I don’t live in Cook County, Frack.

I missed the news stories where the other 101 Illinois counties seceded from Cook County-cum-Illinois - but I offer my congratulations on your successful breakaway!

I'll bet ol' J.B. was fricking mad about getting fracked by his out-county former Illinois subject-peasants.

I further congratulate you on your coming property tax rollbacks! What a Christmas present for you and your former fellow Illinois subjects!

Any names decided upon for the new state of not-Illinois?

Well explained. Taxes revenues are falling. Coffers are dwindling which absolutely will not be allowed. But you must understand the goal of the “Progressives”. “You will own nothing and you will be happy”.
Just think of those who cannot pay the extra in RE taxes and cannot sell on the open market; underwater or no buyers. The county seizes the property for non payment of taxes and sells at auction to Blackrock, Vanguard or some such entity with lots of cash. These investment firms then get a return on their investment by renting it out prolly to the very folks they bought it from. Win-win.

Looks like the Jackal (Newsom) will need to incorporate some of these tax initiatives to reduce his $100 billion shortfall.

The Sparky is a perfect tax slave and where better to hang his hat than Illinois.

Frack, not only did you get into the brown acid, you went for the orange sunshine and the windowpane, as well. Your brain is...well, fried.

Less than three hours till Pudding.

Is Monday a Vanilla Day, or a Chocolate Day?

Ol' J.B. is increasing the daily Pudding ration from 8 ounces to 6 ounces, in order to compensate for the increased property taxation.

There's something you can get behind!

I think they’re all in S. Florida right now. When they find out they may not go back.

Are you saying that a University (”K-State”) gets to increase your property taxes? Am I reading you right?

Ah, both Frick and Frack at the same time! I’m glad, Frack, that you cc’d Frick on this one.

But, I have no idea what J.B. has on his menu at the executive mansion; perhaps you can contact his office and make that inquiry. But, I’m sure he piles his plate high, with whatever it is. And it may very well be pudding.

I hear you. They automatically associate the entire state with Chicago. They are two very different animals.

At some point people simply have to not pay this illegal taxes. It’s getting to the point where the state can confiscate anything…all in the name of the “common good”.

Unelected bureaucrats will @#$% you every time. They are protected parties (government employees/government unionists), unanswerable to those over whom they wield such extraordinary power; untouchabble; and they know it.

As I said - congratulations on the successful secession of the other 101 former Illinois counties from the new diminished state of Crook County-cum-Illinois!

We eagerly await the state naming of the newly-free former Illinois counties!

Perhaps instead of a 51st star on the banana flag, we could lobby for a small hammer and sickle to represent old Illinois...
