Interesting to see how the legislature had to override the governor on this one.

The Illinois economy, if it wasn't bad already, is about to get a lot worse. This is how Democrats hollow out the economy of a state.

Democrats offer valuable and generous entitlements like lifetime pensions which are extremely expensive, then increase taxes to pay for it all, which increases the individual tax burden, which in turn causes people and companies to flee, which makes the overall economy (pie) smaller, which in turn makes the original problem even worse.

Democrats keep diving pie so thinly that no one gets any pie. Fine example of liberal economic policies.
