What are your thoughts on the Quincy Veterans Home mismanagement? The Rauner team hid the truth and lied about their actions, while 13 veterans died.
Sad and bad. But in no way a reason to not vote for Rauner over JB.
How about the Sterigenics plant that was spewing cancer-causing chemicals into the air while Rauner's team did nothing again?
Not a big deal to me.
These are examples of poor management, and that is Rauner's fatal flaw as a politician (see also: firing his entire team and then being forced to fire their replacements weeks later). This doesn't even get into his moves to strangle state universities and social service organizations.
Unfortunately, we need to freeze spending at a minimum and more likely cut spending. Probably should close one of the State universities like Eastern or Western. There seems to be no point to them and they have declining enrollment. Pension costs are unfortunately crowding out social services. You can thank decades of the incestuous pol (both Dem and Reb) and public employee union relationship for this.
