some random thoughts. Wherever you go, always remember what broke Illinois. Don't bring any of that with you. Don't think it will work somewhere else "if they just do it right." It won't. If you think that way, turn around and go back. You have to become a new kind of person in your new home. It will feel strange, but it will work. Think logically with your mind, not feel-good with your heart. That latter is not a way to run a city or a country. Get used to having neighbors that own guns. Get used to people going to church. Don't try to ruin our schools. Most of them are already infiltrated by the kind of people that ruined Illinois and who are ruining most of the colleges. Forget pushing "multiculturalism" and "tolerance." Yes, new people should bring along their culture, but they need to learn American culture and respect it. No, you don't have to tolerate everything. That is foolish. If someone wants to change OUR culture to make it like there's, explain that that won't go. Maybe if the people who leave Illinois do it right, some day they may be able to return and rebuild the ruins that once was a great city.

Kane used to be the most conservative county in the state but it went for Hillary in the last election. I ~~am beginning to think~~ can no longer deny that this state is a lost cause.
