ILLINOIS – What A Wonderful State

There are more people on welfare in Illinois than there are people working.  Chicago pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S. -  averaging $110,000/year.  Their pensions average 80-90% of their income.  The Chicago school system is rated one of the worst in the country.  

Body count:  In the last six months 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago - 221 killed in Iraq; AND Chicago has one of the strictest gun laws in the entire U.S.

Here's the Chicago chain of command:  

· President: Barack Hussein Obama

 

· Senator: Dick Durbin

· House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr.

· Governor: Pat Quinn

· House leader: Mike Madigan

· Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)

· Mayor: Ralm Emanuel

· The leadership in Illinois - all Democrats

Thank you Democrats for the combat zone in Chicago.  Of course, they're all blaming each other.  Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any. 

Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country.  Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any.

State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country.  Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any.

Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25% highest in country.  Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any.

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois.  And he is going to 'fix' Washington politics for us?  George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in prison.  He was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is - that's right, also in prison.

And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned a few weeks ago.  That is because he is fighting to not be sent to -  that's right, prison.

The Land of Lincoln is now where former governors make license plates.  But, you know what?  As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago, like Obama and the democrats are doing in Washington, nothing is going to change, except that this state will go broke before the country does.  And now our country is definitely going broke.
