You got it right at the start of this article. Springfield is the political sewer. The taxers and usurpers of our rights all come from Chicago. Votes have consequences. We are now reaping what we have sown. Put crooks in office, this is what you get. Why is anyone surprised? My self, I am glad that there is gridlock in the state capitol. At least they can't do any damge to my rights or my wallet while they are busy fighting. After all, no man's life, liberty or property are safe while congress is in session. Nowhere is this more true than right here in Illinois. At least right now name calling and bickering is taking the place of regulating, taxing, spending and usurping.
