“The rich families remaking Illinois are among a small group around the country who have channeled their extraordinary wealth into political power, taking advantage of regulatory, legal and cultural shifts that have carved new paths for infusing money into campaigns”: “A Wealthy Governor and His Friends Are Remaking Illinois” (The New York Times ).
Governor Bruce Rauner is Illinois’s version of Scott Walker. Woe is us.
[See Citizen Koch (dir. Carl Deal, Tia Lessin, 2013) for the playbook.]
