So if it was us,wouldn't you want to put your buddies first if qualified? The new GM of the Bears and every other sports boss does the same thing and their friends didn't give them money before they got their gigs. |

I also love the salaries for his staffers. The justification? "You have to pay more for good talent". D or R after the name makes no difference. |

Government jobs dont pay enough to attract top notch talent. Pay more for better talent. I like the way he has started. Tough decisions need to be made. Lots of guys marching holding signs! |

Run it like a business. |

Fuckers shut that shit down because they say it conflicts with the poker machines - threaten to fine and pull machines if they secret shop and see pools. Bowling alleys historically had the very best pools. We had to move our fantasy football draft because the place we've used for 10 years had poker machines installed and they said they couldn't have another form of gambling. So fucking stupid. |

Even though jamokes like me have to save on our own for retirement. |

So fucking stupid. Are you saying that you support politicians hiring large donors as long as your fantasy pool is able to go forward at your local bowling alley? |

I believe in paying more to get good people who can get shit done and manage their business. Saving a few dollars and hiring people on the cheap costs your business more in the long run. |

Here's what I don't get: Rauner said they all were making more in the private sector and took pay cuts to work for him. Why? Out of the goodness of their hearts? |

Some do it for that reason. Some do it to increase business connections. Some do it out of service for their fellow human being. The fact is most of the top talent in every industry is in the private sector. |

I was talking about his staffers, not Rauner. I am aware of the fact that he doesn't need the money. |

I believe he's only taking $1 a year so he's paying them from what he would draw is my understanding. Could be wrong. |
