Chicago voted the rattiest city in the USA for the 8th consecutive year, according to Orkin. Great job, Chicago politicians.
Joe, Homer Glen
Orkin exterminator company just announced Chicago beat out New York and Los Angeles as the rattiest city. All three towns are controlled and run by the Democrats, so I guess they included the politicians also.
Mick, Chicago Heights
The education system should really be revamped to specialize in critical thinking skills. In the age of information, everyone seems to be misinformed.
Mr. Jones, Richton Park
Gov. J.B. Pritzker pays six-figure salaries to many in his administration. This borders on bribery. So they are biased toward his decisions instead of answering to the taxpayers.
Rus, Tinley Park
I saw a commercial admonishing Black people to not vote for Pritzker because he didn’t keep his word about marijuana. Really, if I had a beef with Pritzker, and I don’t, marijuana wouldn’t be on my list.
Geri, Tinley Park
It’s nothing but nonstop campaign ads on TV on radio. Pritzker alone is put in over $50 million, I believe, and I’m sure the other politicians are putting in a load of money. Instead, why don’t they offer rewards for people who have been shot and killed in Chicago and all over the suburbs, throughout Illinois. I’d vote for them then because I knew the money was being spent well.
Jimbo, Chicago Heights
This is for JK of Tinley Park. We have J.B. Pritzker, Lori Lightfoot, Kim Foxx and Toni Preckwinkle. How dumb are the people from Illinois?
Bill, Orland Park
The article regarding Pritzker’s taxes made me want to vomit. The man and those like him have no clue what it is like to be an ordinary person to struggle and live payday to payday. He has not worked a day in his life. Never without a home or clothes on his back and certainly never without a meal. Offshore? Really? And the arrogance really shows
John, Tinley Park
Before you blow out the candles on your next birthday cake, announce to your mother, siblings or children at the table how you support abortion?
