BERG: Small businesses are the lifeblood of Illinois, but they’re treated like dirt

(Illinois News Network) -- Nov. 25 marks the arrival of Small Business Saturday across the nation. And Illinoisans have a lot to appreciate. For all the talk of big-box dominance, mom and pop shops are the Land of Lincoln’s economic workhorses. Businesses with fewer than 50 employees created the vast majority (75 percent) of net new jobs in Illinois last year, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. And during the economic recovery from 2011 to 2016, businesses with fewer than […]

McCALEB: Reasons to be thankful in tax-and-spend Illinois

(Illinois News Network) -- Many Illinoisans will be hard-pressed this week to find something to be thankful for with regard to a state government that is taxing and spending its way to insolvency. The General Assembly passed a $5 billion income tax increase well beyond the end of the scheduled legislative schedule that went into effect retroactive to July 1. And yet the spending plan that was approved alongside that tax hike still is nearly $2 billion out of balance. So […]

HAMILTON: Balancing out the lobbyists

One of the quirks of life in Washington, D.C., is that pretty much the only people who don’t refer to lobbyists by that name are, well, lobbyists. They’re “policy advisors,” or “strategic counsel,” or “public relations advisors,” or lawyers, or even just “consultants.” Whatever they’re called, though, they play a huge role in making policy. For the most part, they are able, well-informed, and skillful at what they do. Their aim is to develop a cordial relationship with policy-makers — […]

MARTIRE: A historical lesson on tax cuts

To stimulate the U.S. economy to “levels you haven’t seen in many years”— President Trump is proposing to cut federal income taxes, for most folks in general, but predominately for really affluent families and mega-corporations. His proposal is so skewed to the wealthy that over the next 10 years, more than half of his multi-trillion dollar tax cut will go to the wealthiest one percent. Big business does well too, gaining an estimated $4.1 trillion tax cut during the next […]

Mac’s Korner: Week of November 22, 2017

Mac's Korner: Week of November 22, 2017 Late one night in Washington, DC a mugger wearing a ski mask jumped into the path of Harry Reid and stuck a gun in his ribs; "Give me your money," he demanded. Indignant, Harry replied, "Don't you know who I am?" You can't do this...I am Senate Minority Leader, Harry Reid! I have been a United States Congressman since 1987. "In that case," the mugger said, "give me my money." .... Ronald Reagan […]

McCaleb: Legislators break into song and dance when real fix is needed

(Illinois News Network) -- I've been called many things, but handy isn't one of them. When something around the house breaks, I usually take a look at the problem, dig through my toolbox, look some more, and then call someone to fix it. Don't get me wrong. I can change a lightbulb and even have replaced the battery in our smoke detector. But if something more complicated stops working – say, the washing machine – I don't have a chance on […]

Commentary: Time for a sane alternative to the Moore circus, write in Ron Bishop for U.S. Senate

Recent revelations regarding sexual misconduct from Republican U.S. Senate Roy Moore has turned the special election for Jeff Sessions' vacated seat into a carnival sideshow. Accusations from five women so far have involved statements that Moore made improper sexual advances on teenage girls while serving as a district attorney decades ago in Gadsen, Alabama. Dozens of Republican lawmakers, including Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell, Arizona Sen. John McCain and senior Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby, have called for Moore to withdraw […]

Commentary: Austin Petersen devolved from an anti-Trump libertarian to a MAGA sellout Republican for Missouri U.S. Senate race

Austin Petersen, a longtime "small-l" libertarian, is in the running for the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate in Missouri in 2018. What voters don't realize is his devolution from an anti-Trump libertarian to a libertarian Republican selling out to the "Make America Great Again" slogan when there's nothing wrong with America, except the government screwing things up. While Petersen has worn many different hats in the past decade. He was a producer of Freedom Watch, a former Fox News Channel […]

GRANT: After Equifax breach, blockchain can give control back to consumers

Former Equifax CEO Rick Smith, in testimony to Congress last week, dodged repeated questions from Sen. Elizabeth Warren about whether consumers do, or should, own the personal data that makes up their identities. The senator’s line of questioning and Smith’s squishy answers point to a major problem in our systems of financial and personal trust, a problem that many people have begun to take note of in the last few weeks. The recent breach of Equifax, in which over 143 […]
