For those of you that believe the Republican policies are toxic, I suggest you really look at Illinois right now!!
Holy shit what a cluster fuck! Illinois is a blue state and has been for 40+ years! They are in SOOO much trouble right now then to veto the Gov and pass this horrific budget, this is going to be a nightmare! The Democrats threatened that IF this wasn't passed the bonds would be considered junk status, well even WITH the budget being passed (against the Gov) they might still be considered junk! Nice job Dems!
- People are going to leave the state because of the hike on income and property taxes. I heard 1 on the radio this morning stating his property tax went from $4400 to $11k!! Fuck THAT!
- Property values are going to plummet! People are not going to be able to sell their homes!
- Foreclosures and bankruptcy here we come!

Not to mention the Cook County beverage tax! I cannot believe this one passed! Any sugar in the beverage add $.01 per ounce tax! So add $.12 to every can of soda. Think about that. Doesn't sound like much but it is bad.

When my work sends me to the Schaumburg campus (north Chicago) for training, I get to enjoy the Chicago "freeway" system... Drive 1 mile then stop and pay a $1.20 toll, drive another half mile and pay $.95, all the way thru greater Chicago. I would like to know who was the dumb mutherfucker that came up with that idea. Thanks Obama.

The Tolls were "supposed" to be gone 10 years ago. The best one is, the first exit in IL coming from WI, right before the exit is a $3.80 toll. So in other words they are taxing WI residents.
I have 5 or 6 friends seriously considering a move to WI. I have 2 pieces of property in IL, 1 I need to get rid of or the taxes will kill me.
