Pissing Away Tax Money
Glad to see this is getting some alternative coverage, seeing as how the bought-and-paid for local outlets aren't looking out for taxpaying citizens:
The Democrat-led state of Illinois spent more to give free health care to illegal migrants than the total it spent on its citizens in programs for foster kids, the elderly, its roadways, and the arts — combined.
The 2025 budget, passed in June of 2024, totaled $53.1 billion in spending, inducing more than one billion dollars in new taxes.
But despite the huge rise in taxes, Gov. JB Pritzker also signed onto a total of $629 million toward taxpayer-funded health care for illegal migrants called the Health Benefits for Immigrant Adults (HBIA).
The mounting number of programs for illegal aliens comes at a cost of billions of tax dollars, according to the Illinois Policy Institute.
But expenditures for citizens are decidedly smaller, according to the Washington Examiner.
Again, Exhibit #1 as to why Fata$$ is U-Haul's Governor of the Decade, contributing mightily to their bottom line as one-way rentals out of Hellinois skyrocket.

I had the occasion to be in a suburban ER in the summer. It was a 7 hour wait to be seen (told to go there by immediate care). The old woman next to me in there for her blood pressure (who was worried as she was a stroke risk) was in there already 3 hours. Pretty sure we were the only legal citizens in there - in fact the guy across from had no problem telling us he was illegal and had been working here for 30 years.
So do we still have to pay our taxes? Why when the city and state are using it for illegal means? No taxation without representation. I bet if we all stopped we would win if we stand our ground.
And the dumb whack jobs protesting Trump who's actually trying to help actual Americans are cheering for the illegals. I'm old, but at this point I hope I live long enough to see these idiots get thrown from buildings and getting stomped on by the illegals and terrorists they love so much.
I just want to leave Illinois and I’m totally just want to retire. I hate being here and now hate my job. I have six years to. There are days where I’m so tired of everything.
Taxations with Crooked Representation.
Gotta keep that hog trough overflowing.
Harvey too has a financial crisis now. It's almost like some strange federal funding for some non-existent flu epidemic was never spent on prevention. Hmmm....
And our pensions are under-funded.
A socialist agenda designed against American citizens.
Brought to you by your global Democrat socialist party. Democrats are stealing out of the taxpayers pockets to fund a global agenda.
Democrats are the problem!
the demoRAT politicians only care about getting the illegals to vote for them because they know the brain dead, brain washed idiots that have always voted demoRAT will never change
See Harvey. The socialist system is your pension plan. Look at what was paid in by the retirees and what they draw. That is socialism.
It's only a matter of time before Pritzker has to tax our pensions to pay for these "newcomers."
Patience, my good fellow. Your time will come.
The dems need to keep the population of the state up so they don't loose anther house seat in 2030. Attracting illegals into the state is one way to do it.
We live in Bizarro World.
And, the Democratic Party was the party of slavery. After that, they were the party of the KKK and segregation. Now, the Dems want a new underclass of slaves, the illegals, to serve them at their beck and call. How many of those angry fat slobs protesters depend on illegals to cook their food, clean their house, and cut their grass. And you can only imagine how enjoyable it is to work for some of these people.
I keep getting notices of Measles reported from the Cook County Dept of Public Health. The latest is that measles were confirmed in Palos Heights. Measles were eradicated in the U.S. before the illegal alien invasion.
You first internet tough guy. Keep us posted on how it goes.
But the great replacement theory is BS. Illinois and democrat run state and cities, citizens are like long term internet and phone plan holders. The best offers are only for new subscribers. Osama bin laden said the way to destroy the U.S. and the West is from within not through war. The enemy is slowly winning city by city.
Most people work W2, so income taxes come right out of their check. Most people have a mortgage (or rent) so property tax comes off the top. If more people were self-employed, and/or owned their property outright, mass refusal-to-pay could be a thing. As it stands, the government automatically gets enough grease to keep rolling, and those who COULD refuse, instead pay voluntarily, under threat of losing their homes and businesses. Want to become a "threat" to this system? Don't waste money, get out of debt, pay your house off, and start a business. It CAN be done. The government HATES subjects who aren't desperate.
Those are communists and schoolteachers at these protests, no productive citizens would attend.
This is their last ditch effort to rob us of our liberties. Trials need to be held at Gitmo as our criminal courts contain the rot too.
Yeah, one way U-haul out of Illinois has been a story that has now disappeared from the internet. Have a now disappeared Google AI page that shows that MIGRANTS that have come to Illinois in the last four years was between 520,000 to 540,OOO !!! That's what the demo-rats need to keep up with the people who left the STATE, and more importantly the ghost voters to keep Porky and his minons in power!
I did exactly that and within a year of joining the retired world I sold the house and moved to Florida since it is still a free state!
Yep. Soon NY will fall. The voters there are insane!
6 years.....are you serious. You should be out of this state within the next 3 years. It’s collapsing. Yes, Illinois will change law to allow municipal bankruptcy. Bye bye pensions.
So true. The catch is your house has to be a shanty so that you don’t care if it’s taken from you during a tax sale. A la south and west side he’ll holes.
Calm down. You’re vxxinated and I am not. You kneeled down. I didn’t. Plus. I Lift. So. Ipso Facto: You belong to me.
Why would you stay in Illinois after retiring?
