Illinois beginning of the end for Democratic party's social welfare experiment

[MindWars]

Actually your site shows Illinois as 9th highest in tax burden. This doesn't refute the point of the OP, but helps prove it.

So not the highest state in taxes.

LOL. The Chicago Tribune just noted the fact that the Illinois legislator just overrode Governor Rauner's veto, the Republican governor that LWNJs love to blame for fiscal troubles, to institute a 32% tax increase demanded by the left. This really pops Penelope's bubble.
