We deserve better!
During a recent interview on the
“Big John and Cisco” radio show, Governor Pat Quinn attempted to justify his plan to balance Illinois’ budget by levying an historic 50 percent tax increase on individuals and businesses.
His primary argument for the increase is that businesses are reluctant to set up shop in our state because Illinois is so deeply in debt.
The Governor doesn’t get it. The real reason more businesses aren’t relocating here is because Illinois-based businesses already shoulder one of the highest tax burdens in the nation. To remain competitive, savvy business owners migrate to states that have a more favorable business climate and take their jobs with them.
Illinois is ranked 48th in the nation in job creation. Only Michigan and Ohio are worse. Don’t you agree that our state’s residents deserve better?
However, until we elect a Republican governor and become the majority party in the Illinois House and Senate, the tax situation is not going to improve. Until we lower taxes, businesses will not be in a position to create more jobs.
The 2010 election promises to be a very exciting campaign cycle. Strong Republican candidates -- armed with a vision to restore our state’s prosperity through smaller government, reduced regulations and lower taxes -- are already emerging to run for state and county offices.
As Ronald Reagan once asked….”Are you better off today than you were four years ago”? If the answer is no, then we invite you to join with us to work for an Illinois that will provide hope for a better future.
