Right Proud, Governor

Governor JB Pritzker's rightly proud of his home state
    The latest statistics all show we're doing great

  While we lead the country in residents fleeing
    That's not all that we should be seeing... 

  For Illinois' top businesses are all growing
    Cannabis, Casinos, Violent Crime
  
  In fact, we've reaped what we've been sowing
    Our student population can't read, write
    ~ or calculate worth one thin dime

It’s an omnishanmbles……I must say. Misleading statistics can’t hide the crumbling infrastructure’s. Our freedom is slipping away . Thanks for the little rant on my part. SuZ

Pritzker is smoking mary jane from Chicago street dealers. Street stuff is higher caliber than the gunk they sell in licensed stores. lol What a business!
