    This is not new news, but first I have heard of it...

    Workers earning minimum wage in Illinois could see an increase in their paychecks under a proposal to raise the state's minimum wage from the current $8.25 per hour to $10.65 per hour by 2014.
    This includes workers that are "tipped."

    Illinois plans on killing the small business industry all together I guess.

    Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin will be extremely grateful for the jobs that will be flooding from Illinois.

    Don't forget Missouri. As it is, any of the "Metro East" (people from Illinois living close to St Louis) folk get their gas in Missouri due to the high gas tax. It won't be long before the business migrates across the Mississippi.

    Just make it 15.00 there is no end to what they want.
    Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
    Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness;
    Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!

    And clever in their own sight! Isaiah 5:20-21 NASB

    It's not like ESL is a functioning entity anyway.
