MARCH 9, 2010 - "I don't agree with across the board.
I think that's a NAIVE approach, It's a difference of life and death... we don't want to make a cut that will result in somebody dying. There are some programs in state government that [can mean] the differance
BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH.
THOSE PROGRAMS YOU CANT CUT.
~Former Republican Governor Jim Edgar
Jim Edgar is certainly the guy to advocate for keeping Illinois taxes high. His annual pension is $130,908 funded by Illinois taxpayers – $10,909 a month. He retired at age 55 in 2001, so he's been paid over $1M already. Edgar also gets $177,630 a year for being a “Distinguished Fellow” at the University of Illinois. His annual taxpayer-funded income is $308,538 – $25,711 a month. No wonder Republican gubernatorial candidate, Bill Brady, recently passed on a photo opportunity with Edgar.
