JB Pritzker Promises to Weaponize Government
Derek Hunter
There are few things worse than someone who has had everything handed to them who acts like they’ve somehow earned all of it. We say these people “were born on 3rd base and act like they hit a triple.” I don’t have a problem with inherited wealth, but that, coupled with a sense of entitlement, is too much form. I call it the “Lucky Sperm Syndrome” – the people whose greatest, and often only, accomplishment in life is that they were the sperm that cracked the egg. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker comes to mind.
Pritzker, whom I affectionately call “Governor Fat B*****d,” after the character in the Austin Powers movies, is someone you can tell hasn’t been told “no” by anyone who could make it stick since he was a kid.
