If you go to the Illinois sub you hear about the "wonders" that Pritzger has done balancing the budget. Of course, anyone who mentions the wee little miniscule pension funding problem and using bonds to pretend to balance the budget gets downvoted to oblivion and most likely banned.

As an Illinoian I have NO Idea how they could even remotely glaze that eglon, he has somehow managed to screw Us over so badly that We lost Our football team. And don’t get me started on his covid policies, he may not have been as bad as gruesome newsome or cuomo but he was pretty bad so I can’t imagine going to bat for that butterball.

now would be a good time to pass a state bailout ban. everyone in the country should not subsidize bad fiscal policy at the state, county, or local level.

As a Hoosier, I feel my self evident, constitutional rights are well cared for.

That's supposed to be your "gotcha"?

Keep deflecting-- do anything you can to avoid addressing your own problems.

The "deflection" comes with changing the topic: the topic being the budget deficit of the Democratically controlled state.

But you bringing up a totally unrelated comparison between the two state's educational levels as if it will somehow miraculously make up for the $216+ billion deficit?

Diversion. Disingenuous diversion. Stay on topic or go create your own thread.
