Proft is facing five competitors in the Republican Primary. The discussion ranges from the impact of the Chicago 9 on public policy to school choice-school vouchers to Dan Proft's flaws and message to Original Sin to Jack Ryan to controlling state spending to cutting state taxes to changing a system that Proft contends is "fixed" to protect jobs and pensions for those who support the Chicago 9 to abortion to gun control to whether libertarians do and should support same sex marriage to much, much more.
You can now watch the show with Dan Proft, at 37-- the youngest Republican Primary Guv candidate-- on your computer.

Cutting the state income tax--restoring prosperity in Illinois?
Dan Proft [Republican Primary Gubernatorial Candidate]: I would move to cut the [state] income tax rate.
Jeff Berkowitz: To what?
Dan Proft: I’d move to try to cut it in half.
Jeff Berkowitz: To 1 1/2% ?
Dan Proft: I’d go the exact opposite direction [of Quinn]. Gov. Quinn wants to raise it. Quinn and [Speaker Mike] Madigan want to raise it a percentage and a half, a 50% increase-- I’d like to cut it by 50%. And, the corporate income tax too, because that’s important, to send a signal—
Jeff Berkowitz: How much do you cut that? In half, too?
Dan Proft: Yes.
Jeff Berkowitz: What’s it now?
Dan Proft: It’s 4.8%
Send them a message
Jeff Berkowitz: So, 2.4 % [for the corporate state income tax]?
Dan Proft: Yes. The only way Illinois is viable short term or long term is to send a signal that we want businesses here because right now the signal that we are sending to the entire globe across the planet is “Don’t come to Illinois.” …

Implementing the Laffer Curve-- following Gov. Daniels?
Dan Proft: [Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels] did two things very similar to what I am talking about doing. He reformed their tax structure- he focused on property taxes-- and he slowed the rate of spending growth. Those two things.
Jeff Berkowitz: So, if you do that…you are saying tax revenue in Illinois will probably increase in Illinois
Dan Proft: Well, because you will have increased economic activity- you will have businesses locating here.
Jeff Berkowitz: Lower tax rate, but higher tax revenue, right? That’s the Laffer curve.
Dan Proft: Yes, you expand the tax base.
