Chicago RECESSION: 23 Months Business Decline as Woke Mayor DESTROYS Economy

Chicago's been stumbling like a drunk leaving a bar after 12 Bud Lights - and the numbers prove it. We're talking 23 straight months of declining business activity, unemployment climbing, and a nearly billion-dollar budget deficit that would make your accountant weep. But instead of admitting their progressive tax-and-spend policies drove businesses away, Mayor Brandon Johnson is doubling down on "progressive revenue" - because apparently taxing the remaining employers into oblivion is the brilliant solution.We break down the devastating economic metrics, from plummeting business barometers to skyrocketing property taxes that have homeowners literally lining up at government offices in panic. Meanwhile, Johnson blames Trump's cuts for Chicago's woes - conveniently ignoring that this decline started long before Trump took office. Is anyone surprised that 10,000 businesses have fled Illinois in the last decade? What happens when the last major employer finally says "enough" and relocates to business-friendly states?
