Illinois on the verge of being downgraded to 'junk bond' status

...and this gas tax is to fix roads!? If that is really the case, maybe they will fix that stretch between Martinsville and Bloomington. That is absolutely dreadful, I will do just about anything to avoid going to Bloomington it is so bad.

The politicians say the increased gasoline tax will go to fix roads, but we know that promise isn't always kept. Our roads are terrible all over the state. Our county put a wheel tax on all road vehicles a few years ago. This was suppose to get our roads in good shape. The roads are worse now than then.

Sorry this is off the original topic.

Looks like personal income taxes were raised 1.2%.
