Somebody has to take the blame. It cant be the guy that the MAJORITY of people voted for could it? It serves you right, every one of you who voted for him, and the rest of you I feel very bad for.

We need to stop giving away freebies and use that money towards things that will boost our economy.

^But the thing with a state like ours is that the people who vote are normally not well off financialy or racially. The majority of people in Illinois don't care about voting.
