tax rates in Illinois. Americans have long sensed the favoritism given to the wealthier segment and its no different in Illinois. The class warfare has been over for a long time but we are seeing a rebirth of populism in which most americans see the rich as getting all the breaks and the rest of us pay for them. The media has been a propaganda outlet for years in driving discourse among average americans based on social issues while shielding the financial decimation of middle and lower class americans from having fair and open debate.

guns, bibles, abortions don't feed people, don't pay for college. America starting to get it. The 1% worse nightmare.
