I remember a time that we used to have a Republican Governor and Senator. I remember a time when Republican candidates for president can compete in this state. I remember a time when Cook County didn't ultimately decide what Illinois does and who Illinois sends to DC.
Will we ever return return to such a time?
Oh by the way, fuck Chicago and fuck Cook County.
Illinois is blue because of a few counties in and around Chicago. The rest is based.
As someone in south IL, it's really only Chicago that's beyond help.
Well, Chicago and East St. Louis.
I find it strange that there hasn't been a property tax revolt like there was for the soda tax. Everyone is complaining about their property taxes!
Springfield is pretty shit too desu
>Minnesota
>red
Nope
If someone dropped a bomb on Chicago the state would go red overnight. Make of that what you will.
Well yeah, that’s where all the “activists” who descend on the capitol building to push their bullshit agendas live.
because everyone smart enough knows not to buy property in this piece of shit state. Renting in Chicago may be throwing away my money, but at least I'm not tied down.
the coming increases in taxes will mean that the only remaining residents in Illinois will be baizuo technocrats and ghetto creatures; so, no, there is no chance for recovery.
IL is completely fucked. Property """values""" are insane and a bubble. Property taxes are the second highest in the nation. Sales tax is the highest in the nation. Income tax is reasonable but the fatty in the governors mansion is doing his damnedest to change that.
t. IL resident looking to get the fuck out
only chance is if it can separate from the chiraq. if not its doomed.
a few counties have it already on their voting schedule for next spring to include a separation question.
if it fails, i have family holding me here is all, i may have to uproot.
t.illinios bro
Penn. and Ohio going back blue Biden is +8
>he thinks Biden will be the nominee
Hey @CityBureaucrat
Um yeah he will. He's way above anyone else in the primaries.
Too many nigs. We need to pay them to move to Cali. Enrich (((Hollywood)))
If you want to get the fuck out but stay close to home, just move to Wisconsin. It's slowly gotten more based politically in the last 15 years or so. I'm moving to Kenosha at the end of the month.
No, it fucked. But its a fun show to watch from across the river.
It’s insolvent so get out while you can especially if you own property. I’m loving comfy Nevada and the low taxes and cost of living.
is davenport th3 best city in th3 country?
If Trump can get his shit together and mass deport all the illegals that Obama flooded the state with, then maybe
Born and raised in Chicago, recent transplant to Texas. I'm moving back in the next year. Texas really sucks.
>Texas
You mean Nu-California?
ICE IF YOU'RE LISTENING PLEASE SEARCH AROUND ILLINOIS FOR ILLEGALS WE HAVE THE MOST ILLEGALS IN ANY STATE THEY GET BUSSED IN ALL THE TIME CHECK BUSINESSESS
>red state legislature
>Trump has a good shot there in 2020
You better believe it user.
Because of Chicago, no.
It wouldn't be if there was a legal procedure for the rest of the state to eject Cook County without them having any say in the matter.
fuck chicago and fuck cook county
I don't think so OP. Like pretty much every state; the further you get from metropolitan areas the more redpilled people are. I meet a group of pretty based naturalists last year while hiking the Starved Rock National Park. This was before I knew about basedness, redpilling, (((them))), ect... I guess knowing what I do now they might have been eco-fascists; but they also smoked pot(and so do I, get over it) so maybe not Nazis. Regardless they taught me about how during the last ice age much of the midwest had a glacier steamroll the whole place and as it slowed down it carved out the landscape and there are still signs of this activity to this day. Super cool stuff and I had a blast, if your one of /us/ you need this experience in your life. Also, buy and train with guns, keep you house clean, eat right and work out Anons. The future is still ours to claim.
Yes.
No.
Yeah and I'm sure the polls also say he is beating Trump to.
It's Cook County. Get rid of it and Illinois is okay.
Its almost like one place shouldn't have that much power...
Also Indiana is still best state.
This desu

I really want the housing market here in chicago to crash so i can buy a house idk if that will happen tho :(
This place sucks, but it's not that bad. It's going to get worse when the state inevitably goes bankrupt, but whatever. I own my house and I have enough food and skill to last a little while.
So, basically nigger areas of the state..
I thought all that is offset by the fact that you guys have the lowest income tax in the nation? or second to it?
dunno, fill me in
indeed, indiana has not let its cities spiral out of control
Indianapolis is a actual nigger containment zone, they don't leave if they know whats good from them.
Born in Joliet. Only lived there two years of my life. So glad my parents got me the fuck out of there.
Champaign is always blue not that long ago it was red.
grew up in Chicago suburbs, watched it go downhill in the 1990s. State is completely screwed, never recovered from 2008. Next recession everything will implode.
Look at those tumors growing on my red state. Also fuck bloomington
