New Bill Would Cut Federal Money for License Plate Surveillance

Washington Takes On Flock: New Bill Would Cut Federal Money for License Plate Surveillance THE HEADLINE: WASHINGTON IS FINALLY TAKING ON FLOCK For years, Americans were told not to worry about automated license plate readers. “If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear.” That slogan is now collapsing under the weight of reality. A new bipartisan bill in the U.S....

Two 0% Levies, Two Different Stories: Last Year’s Fight vs. This Year’s Proposal

Two 0% Levies, Two Different Stories: Last Year's Fight vs. This Year's Proposal Sometimes the same number tells two completely different stories. “0% levy” sounds simple. But last year, 0% was forced through after a floor fight. This year, 0% has been announced as the County Executive’s proposal. Do not confuse the two. Last Year: 0% Was the Result of a Fight…...

Permit Fee Windfalls Due to Under Stating What Is Really Needed Cause a Higher Budget and Levy

Permit Fee Windfalls: How the Logistics Boom Filled Will County's Coffers Without Relieving Taxpayers Ask any bureaucrat in Will County how the government funds its ever-expanding administrative apparatus, and they will point a trembling finger at your property tax bill, claiming local government is perpetually starved for cash. But while homeowners are squeezed year after year to feed the beast, a massive, unadvertised river of cash has been quietly flooding county coffers: building, zoning, and permit fees driven by the historic warehouse and logistics boom....

My Solution to Adhere to the Tyler Supreme Court Ruling stopping Equity Theft

The Fatal Flaw: When a $200,000 Home is Sold for $70,000 Here is where the math stops making sense and starts making victims. Under Illinois’ tax sale statute, when a property goes to auction, the minimum bid is set at what is owed in taxes, penalties, and costs. But what happens when the hammer falls? Too often, homes are auctioned off in distressed, low-turnout sales where speculators swoop in to scoop up prime real estate for pennies on the dollar....

They Voted No. The Board Ignored Them. Then the Cameras Were Suspended.

They Voted No. The Board Ignored Them. Then the Cameras Were Suspended. What happens when voters say no, elected officials proceed anyway, taxpayers pay the bill, and then the exact concern voters raised becomes the reason the program is suspended? Homer Glen just gave us the answer. In April 2023, Homer Glen voters rejected license plate reader cameras by approximately…...

I Don't Like New Laws. But E-Bikes and Scooters Needed This One. These images are editorial illustrations of the public-safety issue. They do not depict any of the crashes discussed below. The forgotten truth about government regulation is simple: not every new law is unnecessary, and not every problem can be solved by telling people to “use common sense.” I do not like new laws....

The Appraisal Method: How to End Home Equity Theft the Right Way

The Appraisal Method: How to End Home Equity Theft the Right Way The uncomfortable truth is simple: when government sells a tax-delinquent home at a distressed auction price, the homeowner can lose far more than the taxes owed. A professional tax buyer may purchase the property for a fraction of its real market value, pay the delinquent taxes, and then resell the home for a substantial profit....
