More Illinois Tricks

The Illinois Right to Vote Amendment is on the November 4, 2014 ballot in Illinois as a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment. The measure would provide that no person shall be denied the right to register to vote or cast a ballot in an election based on race, color, ethnicity, language, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation or income. I am voting NO on this amendment. The reason for my NO vote is that these rights are already assured under the Constitution.

Shall the minimum wage in Illinois for adults over the age of 18 be raised to $10 per hour by January 1, 2015? I am voting NO on this proposal. Illinois is already last in the nation in job creations and this proposal will only make sure Illinois stays that way. The purpose of this vote is not to help the less fortunate(it does not), it helps big labor. The real purpose of the this issue and the one that essentially repeats federal law is to get the Zombie vote out. 

Should the Illinois Constitution be amended to require that each school district receive additional revenue, based on their number of students, from an additional 3% tax on income greater than one million dollars? This is another device to get the Zombies out to vote. I am voting NO. Millionaires already pay a huge percentage of taxes. Making millionaires pay more will not improve my life. If you really believe the money is going to education as promised, then remember the lottery and other forms of gambling that was supposed to go to education. Not a chance, just more money for the gangsters who run this state to hand out to their friends.

Shall any health insurance plan in Illinois that provides prescription drug coverage be required to include prescription birth control as part of that coverage? I am voting NO on this. 1st it will not pass Constitutional muster afterSebelius v. Hobby Lobby and then Little Lisa Madigan can blow millions of dollars arguing and losing in the Supreme Court. 2nd, no one is being denied BC, you simply have to buy it yourself like most things in life.

There is a simple reason behind why these Amendments and Advisory Opinions are on the ballot. The Gangsters who currently run Illinois and treat it as their own piggy bank are concerned that they could lose their 2nd in command, Don Pat Quinn if they are unable to steal enough votes. This would be slightly slow up their criminal activities. Don Michael Madigan and his daughter Little Lisa Madigan would be left alone to rule the State. This proposals with the exception of the Amendment would give more rights to criminal victims are designed to get the Zombie vote out in full force. Missing of course was the attempt to pass term limits and to take redistricting (at least theoretically) out of the hands of the party in power.
