the powerful democrats like Madigan and Cullerton has cause the financial mess we have in this state. Madigan has run the state for the last 43 years. the time has come to pay for the bad financial decisions made over the years. only one other state is worse then we are and that is California. Rauner was voted in to stop the insanity.

When will Madigan and his fellow dems figure out that it's time to sit down and come up with an actual balanced budget? Rauner is not getting his way. It's hard when someone behaves like it's his way or there will be no way at all. Nice way to shake up Illinois, isn't it? Rauner is putting his foot down with Madigan. Madigan gave a budget that he said the state couldn't cover. Wtf is that? I'm tired of more tax increases. We need to live within our means.

Perhaps Rauner and Madigan should have an open debate everyone can watch... If that don't work..An old fashioned duel would be my next choice....

An armed revolution is the only way to turn this country and state around. nothing else is working to fix the problems we have.

It makes me wonder if there will be a budget agreement by next fiscal year. Alright. I don't really think there will be one. Just continue to spend money, that the state does not have, and get more in debt. Will never get out of debt. It will get worse.

Because I don't live in Illinois, I do not know much about what is going on in Springfield. All I know is what I hear from my contacts in Springfield. They tell me that Rauner will reject any type of budget that does deal with his so-called "turn around agenda." You know, his attempts to turn Illinois into a right to work state.
Because you all live in Illinois, you probably know that there was an attempt by a group of Demos and Repos to fashion a compromise. Rauner rejected it out of hand, and was livid when word leaked out about the effort.
I have never been a fan of Madigan, but the two idiots in control will not work things out for a long time.

I agree there will be a long stalemate since neither man can stand the taste of defeat. Madigan proved that long ago in dealing with other republican governors through the 43 years he has run the state.

43 years is way too long to be in office.
