Forget 'Right To Work'; Rauner's succeeding at 'Right To Fail'

Newbie Illinois governor Bruce Rauner may have had the worst first 100 gubernatorial days in Illinois history. He spent $26 million of his own billionaire wealth promoting his bust the unions, reduce aid to the needy, lavish tax cuts on the wealthy program to get elected. Those who assumed he was just posturing to get elected, before pivoting to actually compromise on sensible solutions for Illinois, have been woefully mistaken. Once sworn in Rauner redoubled his extreme ideological campaign mantra that has alienated not only the general electorate, save for the greedy rich, but most of the General Assembly as well. Rauner is so pathetic, he's reduced to dropping $400 grand last week on Republican legislators, out of his $20 million 'spread the goodies' slush fund, to keep the nervous troops in line. Sadly for Illinois, Rauner remains trapped in his billionaire venture capitalist mindset that he can dismantle Illinois governance like he could the many good companies, whose employees had to suffer to pile up his billionaire wealth. Rauner's 'My way or the highway' approach is nothing more than a potholed road to ruin. And the tires on his gubernatorial luxury limo have already gone flat.
