gently caress this state. Of all the true blue states, this is the most milquetoast state and the state that lags behind every single other state, red or blue, on skidding its rear end towards actual reform. For a state founded on a piece of poo poo machine that gave my dad's family a turkey just because he lived in Bridgeport, let's start. I'll start with our actual head of state, Michael Madigan. Here's the link. The Chicago Tribune actually posted:Not that Illinois' most clouted pol appears to care that his state is bleeding. What does Madigan suffer as, year after year, expats take their talents, their incomes and their futures elsewhere? Nor do Madigan and Cullerton, with their combined 84 years in Springfield (in 2017 they'll make it 86 years!) confess their deep complicity in this once-proud state's humiliating fall. In addition, this piece of poo poo has been feuding with our governor, Bruce Rauner, from two years. He's a pretty lovely guy too. We haven't passed a budget due to their staring contest. Some more assholes from our state! Yeah, it's more Tribune talk posted:A stopgap budget expires Sunday, and with it state government funding for public universities, social service agencies that provide care for the elderly and disabled, and day-to-day expenses such as electricity for buildings. and we're the state of Obama

But yes- Madigan is poo poo, Rauner is poo poo, Rahm DESERVES TO DIE, the Strogers are probably lurking somewhere to get back involved stealing everything they can from Cook County.

Chicago has become such a mess under Rahm that I'd almost be fine with Trump sending in troops so long as a major part of their mandate was to put him in stocks and let south-side children punch his tiny nutsack 8 hours a day.

I am 100% fine with this I didn't link the cool parts of the staredown like Madigan inadvertanlty cutting off health services, not giving a poo poo, and causing local free health clinics to close down, but I'm fine with someone laying into Rahm it won't make up for much, but it'd be cool to watch

I couldn't imagine Rahm winning in 2015. Everyone hated him, Chuy signs were everywhere, my friends and I were going door to door and everyone was cheering us on. Then I left hipsterville and went to the north side. Rahm signs on every multi-million dollar home and cheap-rear end dive bar. Old white people are terrible Fansy has issued a correction as of 07:47 on Jan 25, 2017 |

A decent chunk of Illinois' problems would be solved if y'all sawed Chicago off from the rest of the state and dumped it into the Great Lakes.

Illinois badly needs Berniebros/leftist populists to take over the party, but our machine is by far the most built out and immune to change out there so idk if that'd even do anything.

There is a place in illinois for leftists: they're called the greens, and they are useless as gently caress You want a party that don't take money from lobbyists or corporate employees? You want the greens.
