Chicago Democrats have run Illinois into the ground. Since Rod Blagojevich became governor in 2003, Illinois state
government has spent roughly $500 billion dollars (yes nearly half a trillion).
Yet, Illinois is:
48th in job growth
36th in education
Leading the nation in youth violent crime
3rd in the nation in gambling revenue.
Last year, over 700 manufacturing companies left Illinois.
Over the last ten years, 750,000 people left the state, many of them high income earners
