Iowa and Illinois are more progressive than California. It's a world gone mad!

    Yeh, lording that fancy 'universal free healthcare' over you, like it's in someway more civilized than hospitals forcing people into bankruptcy. Hey, you can't afford medical treatment, why'd you get sick! Take some personal responsibility for your life!

    I live in Southern IL... we are the last for everything. Not to mention the corrupt politicians. Among other things. Chicago runs this state which is a joke. We dont even have conceal and carry yet.

    Isn't the conviction rate higher for Governors than for murderers in IL?

    Even though it is ridiculous that is something that needs to have an "act" passed, I'm still happy about it.
