Funny...I don't believe a word that guy says. The nitwit will manage to screw things up at the last minute like he always does.

A good way to fund transit would be for Blagojevich and the Democrat-controlled Illinois legislature to stop driving businesses and jobs out of Illinois. How? By decreasing spending on a host of wasteful items, from ineffective job-training programs to obscure, pork-filled infrastructure bills. Then they won't need to tax money await from spenders (i.e., the public) and job-creators (i.e., businesses). Gradally, the state's tax base will GROW. The result? More state revenue available for transit.

The right thing would be a proposal that found a real and sustainable solution to our transit funding problem. Blago is good at the sound bites, but how much does this actually save? Pennies, as you say.

It does feel pretty strange to agree with him but Blago is doing the right thing for once.
