Take the percentage out of your own paychecks. People can barely afford to live in the county as is. You're keeping the rich rich and the poor worse off than they were the year before. Nice job Crook County!

Who's running this city and State, the "keystone cops?" Take a pay cut and stop giving yourselves raises!

Raising our tax will only ensure the surrounding counties make more money.

I am ready to move out! This is the worst running board ever that does not even consider alternate options before raising the taxes! I will definitely shop somewhere else forever!

DO NOT INCREASE THE SALE TAX!! My option will be shopping in DuPage or Kane counties, where the gas is also cheaper!!!

Hammering the low and middle class again with taxes. Is this the same tax the County President campaigned against?

There needs to be a serious look at how to become more economical with our spending rather than taking more from those that keep you in office.

Control your spending Cook County. Stop thinking that raiding middle class wallets will solve your spending problem.

Pres. Preckwinkle, I know from personal experience that every Cook County office could be made much more efficient. Let's cut spending on County administration before raising taxes that you yourself campaigned to repeal.

Higher sales tax relative to our neighboring counties will hurt businesses and consumers alike
