Why are the running dry?

Source-Breitbart- Illinois is losing more citizens than nearly every other state and according to reports the biggest reason citizens are leaving is that they can no longer afford to live in the Land of Lincoln. Certainly Americans move from place to place for a large variety of reasons. From new jobs to schooling to weather and family Americans are a people motivated by the need for change. But in Illinois one of the major reasons to seek a change of venue is because the state is simply taxing them out of their homes according to Chicagos WGN TV. According to reports Illinois alone lost 33703 citizens to outward migration last year. In 2016 the state lost another 37508 people. A report by the Chicago Tribune also noted that Chicago has been a net loser of its citizens for the last three years running. And the surrounding county was also a net loser of its population. Indeed Chicago is unique in the U.S. for being the only major city that has consistently lost citizens over the last five years. The Tribunes editorial board even published an editorial saying that it no longer makes any sense to live in Illinois.
