Go! Leave! Don’t just threaten it, just go!
As long as the Chicago kleptocrats run the state, it’s best to take the money and run.

But, but, the mighty Quinn said this tax hike wouldn't affect business in this state.
He is either the biggest liar or the biggest fool (or both) this side of Obama. Geez, I wish Blago was still in office; at least he didn't raise taxes.
