Operating a business on a minimal budget

For many decades, a lot of money was needed to start a business and potential business owners had to put business plans, cash flow forecasts and projected accounts together if they needed to raise any finance.

Bailey fears state government won’t keep spending in check

SPRINGFIELD (Heartland Newsfeed) -- Newly sworn-in state Rep. Darren Bailey is fearing his suspicions about what would take place in Springfield are becoming reality. “This seems to send an early example of how Gov.

These same predictions also come from ignorant journalists and so-called hubristic economists who know nothing about cryptocurrencies, hence […]

COMMENTARY: New legislative cycle, same old chaos

As a new General Assembly legislative session convenes this week, the same political chaos continues. The newly-established Democratic super-majority continued to elect the same corrupt leadership in Michael Madigan and John Cullerton, just as Republicans did the same with Jim Durkin and Bill Brady. This only confirms that the duopoly embraces corruption. In other words, the same political clusterfuck still exists: Illinois still spends nearly $143.79 billion for every $108.53 billion taken in. The state has an operational debt of […]
