Back home in Illinois…

Illinois Gov. Quinn is going to raise income taxes 50%,  but through Obama magic, it’s really going to be a tax cut for millions.”

And if that isn’t enough to make your head hurt, Cook County will now be known for something other than the customary Illinois election fraud, by requiring a right hand thumbprint from anyone selling property there.

But you watch — states will now be jacking up their taxes, so the few  people who’d benefit under the Obama plan will simply pay that to their states and municipalities.    The question will soon be:   how many of us are willing to hold our states accountable?    Start by reminding them that 60% of the jobs created in the last couple of years were in Texas, which has no state income tax.    Look at the number of businesses and workers who have fled Michigan and California in the last few years.
