Just to be clear over the past 8 years the governor of Illinois who is “Fighting for the People” has increased the taxes and fees of those same people 63 times taking $77 BILLION MORE DOLLARS out of their pockets
The medium Illinois household he is “Fighting For” now pays over $1,400.00 more per year in state taxes and here’s the bonus, the highest property taxes in America
Oh and BTW the people’s “FIGHTING” governor has doubled their gas tax which he refuses to suspend, costing them $.84 for every gallon of gas they pump
Wow Illinois is lucky to have JB Pritzker “FIGHTING” for us
Since 2020, @ChiPubSchools has lost 24,000 students.
Nevertheless, they hired 8,250 more staff and grew their budget by a remarkable $2.4 billion.
Now Illinois taxpayers are footing the bill for their record-breaking $10.11 billions budget, while only 27% of grade-school kids can do math at grade level.
Consider the additional fact that over 40% of CPS teachers missed 10+ days of school last year, and it becomes painfully clear that CPS leadership is running a highly political jobs program for under-achieving adults, and not an education service for children.

Mark Cuban: "California is run terribly. The taxes are insane. That’s why people keep moving to Texas."
Mark Cuban (10 minutes later): "Vote for James Talarico. Turn Texas blue. What have Republicans ever done for the state."
Hunters are prohibited from using trail cameras in AZ and NV, while states including AK, CO, ID, KS, MT, NH, NM, and UT prohibit or limit trail cameras with wireless transmission capabilities.
But all these states use Flock cameras to track you...
@Devon_Eriksen_@tanyaelisabethh What did they do just a few short decades ago when they didn't have half of a pharmacy's worth of meds running through their system? Like as little as 30 or so years ago?
I've been reliably told by "Reaganite Republicans" on this platform that it's treason if you want to put a stop to the underlying cause that's driving this.
@TripleNetTyler Your missing the $billions and $billions funneled from the government and politicians to NGO's and outright stolen, plus all the money we give away to foreigners. Trust that they will find a way to scoop these up before anyone born here and those without a DEI tailwind.
The largest passenger toll hike in Illinois history is being quietly pushed through by @GovPritzker's appointed tollway board, despite 83% of public commenters explicitly opposing the move.
Here's what's coming:
>57% fee increase for everyday passengers
>30% fee increase for commercial trucks
>Automatic, permanent inflation-linked hikes starting in 2029
That last bullet means your tolls will go up forever without a single public officeholder having to cast a tough vote.
Arguably the worst part is that the tollway already collects $1.75 billion annually, which is $1.3 billion more than they actually spend on road maintenance and operations.

@elonmusk@MillionInt Can anyone explain why the new found wealth (or infinite wealth, or post-scarcity, etc.) and prosperity will be universally shared? The $Trillions previously stolen/spent by the US government seemed to strangely benefit a very small percentage of elites. Sounds like communism.
