No. I'm saying you wrote a sentence that implied that the capital of Illinois is chicago.
And I remarked that you clearly don't even know what the capital of Illinois is because you probably don't live there.
>>68440404
Yeah, because Chicago fucks over the rest of the state to benefit itself. Pretty standard of democrats to fuck over the REAL working class (farmers and miners) and then pretend they're fighting for the people. Sickening.
If Chicago became its own state tomorrow, it would collapse in five years and downstate Illinois would admittedly be poor but improve rapidly.

From a downstate perspective, It's so frustrating watching Chicago slowly strangle itself to death. Chicago has a lot of really cool shit going for it, but goddamn this city (and state) is too corrupt/incompetent to make anything of it.
