Wise up, Illinoisans, and leave

Congratulations, Illinois, your state ranks third in the nation for the number of people leaving the state.

Ergo, with fewer people driving the tollway, which was supposed to be free decades ago, the commission raised the tollway fees by 57%. Have you noticed the huge increases in property taxes? Same reason, fewer people to support your corrupt government means a property tax increase.

Soon, the last people remaining in Illinois will be responsible through taxes for all the billions of dollars to fund the state. Wise up and join the tens of thousands of people who have given up on what used to be a great state.

And your governor thinks he has done such a great job ruining your state he should run for president. Contrary to opinion, he wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth. According to the scales it was a silver shovel
