    “Look at your tax bill and call every local government that increased taxes and ask them why they did it and where the money goes.”
    There are dozens of municipalities, school districts, libraries and first responder pension funds on every tax bill. Who’s got time to call them all and, even if they did, would they get a straight and honest answer? Probably not.

    Do you notice how much homelessness we have in Cook county do you think it may be correlated to the increases in taxes and the increases in property values from the artificially low interest rate that was in effect for years. It is my belief that our politicians left at artificially low in order to increase property prices to cover their perspective budget at the cost of the public as usual.
