According to a recent study by WalletHub, Illinoisans pay the highest taxes and fees in the nation, 53% more in taxes than the U.S. average. Meanwhile, a recent WalletHub study showed Illinois dead last in the nation in economic equity. Minorities, the poor and others who support Pritzkers so called progressive agenda have been taken for granted as Illinois most expensive and expansive government has done little to improve economic conditions and opportunities for its poorest residents. Illinois third ranking among states in the exodus of residents includes a second ranking for Black residents leaving, while Chicago’s lost more Black residents than any major American city since 2000. No coincidence that they’re overwhelmingly middle income families with school age children. Any agenda that continuously raises taxes and fees, whose nation leading property taxes drives residents out of their homes and apartments, consistently expands government dependency, returns violent criminals to the streets and denies quality school choice, is not an equity agenda. Don’t expect Illinois current leaders to reassesses their policies as an increasing percentage of those remaining as well as those arriving, including tens of thousands of international migrants, are government dependent and will continue to vote for the current leadership.

Hello Chicagoans Little Village, Pilsen, communities across the West Side, and Northside are Next. I recently went over to the South Shore community, from 75th and Exchange to 75th and Jeffery, to talk with citizens today, I visit local businesses, and see firsthand what is happening in the neighborhood. South Shore is very dear to me because it's where I grew up. From ages 1 to 14, I lived at 68th and Paxton. From age 14 on, I lived at 74th and South Shore Drive, and later raised my children on 76th and South Shore Drive. I also attended South Shore High School. I wanted to go back to the community that helped shape me, listen to the people who live there, and see for myself the challenges, that exist today. I took videos and spoke with citizens, and business owners, and I will be sharing those videos soon. This is just the beginning. I will also be visiting . My goal is to make my way through every neighborhood, listen to the citizens, and learn directly from the people who call these communities home. I love you all, and thank you for allowing me to hear your concerns, your ideas, and your hopes for the future of our city.

These comments by Larry Fink explain everything that’s wrong with compulsory superannuation. Fund managers, acting on behalf of the establishment use YOUR money to push THEIR agendas. Superannuation is used to invest in renewables, NDIS and offshore investments. Remember when Albanese went to the USA and committed to invest $1 trillion of YOUR money there while Australia suffers from under investment in Infrastructure here! And here’s the thing - you were never given a say in whether or not you wanted 12% your wages or for many, 100% of your entire disposable taken from you and given to foreign grifters like Fink to manage. Furthermore if you’re money is invested in an industry or retail fund you’re given no say in how it is invested. https://t.co/PeAaJW2pjF is the only party that seems to actually understand this and a solution to fix it. We will make super voluntary and secondly if you do decide to invest in it you will be given both 1) voting rights to elect board members and 2) proxy voting rights in the companies your superannuation fund invests in. It’s time the rort called superannuation was held to account.
