Cost of corruption — $55,000.00!


Dear Readers;
As many of you know, corruption in our Cook County Circuit court costs all of us millions and millions of dollars per year.  That is what happens when justice is not done.
Attorneys are not just supposed to just “walk on by” when they see corruption, but sadly about as many do as the general public does when corruption is seen.  To complicate the matter further, when, as in this case the corruption is reported over and over but nothing is done because it apparently reaches the highest levels in the state, city and county, the costs and problems become harder and harder to solve.
Take a look below and see what corruption costs in terms of me running this blog when there are other consumer protection suits I want to be involved in.
take care
