In reply to the discussion: Illinois Governor Delivers $10,000 Check To Help Feed Striking Workers [View all]Right on! He's not really concerned, he's simply trying to rally votes somewhere seeing as he's PO all the state workers. I highly doubt this man has any sympathetic bones in his body. He's closing state facilities left and right and leaving tons of people unemployed. People who have dedicated their lives working for the state while it was convenient for them to keep these facilities open. Now the very people that worked hard and kept these places running are being punished for mistakes made higher up the chain. He does not care about the people he simply wants to be re-elected. He makes me sick.
By all means the people from the CAT plant deserve this $10,000 and probably more, but how this man can stand there like some hero or saint..while leaving 1,000's unemployed and sacrificing the well being of developmentally challenged individuals is beyond me. All the comments on here praising this douche was too much for me.
I've always been a devoted democrat voter..but if its between this jerk and a republican I will not vote for him.
All those people that losing there jobs are now going to be getting paid, sitting at home with unemployment benefits..where the hell is that money going to come from? Id rather work for my money (like I'm sure most of these people would) then collecting unemployment. He is a joke.
