Illinois is broke and so is the nation. We are printing money backed by nothing but debt to the likes of China.
The objective is to leave something to your grandchildren, not leave them with a debt to pay for our reckless spending.
My point was that grabbing some pork for Elgin instead of Rockford is a fool's game when we are paying for it with interest.
But both of them rambled on, spouting the revenue source as this grant or that. There was no acknowledgment that grants are not free money at all.
So I got to thinking that neither candidate has any bangs. Maybe these concepts are sailing over the top. Here's a visor that just might trap a few of these ideas so they fall down right before their eyes.
You are so right. Unless our entire country stops taking grants the Chinese will own us.
