Let's not forget that she cut soyme spending, tried to lower pension costs and lowered the sales tax. Not all of those played out, but lets look at the whole story instead of acting like she was just created in a CTU lab to do their bidding.

Her signature issue when first running for Cook County President was to cut the sales tax. She did then raised it back and came up with the ridiculous soda tax. Which passed but was repealed against her wishes. If she cut spending it clearly wasn't enough.
