Sue the Democrat Party. They caused this and they have LOADS of money.

If only it were that easy. BTW the RINO REPUBLICAN party in this state should be sued too. They're guilty as the Democrats are. There really is no difference between the D's and R's in this state.

"I hope Illinois raises taxes "

I hope Oklahoma is blown away in a tornado!

Obama was not a long term member of the Illinois state legislature. He was only in for six years if I remember correctly.

Luckily the state government is still shutdown. But it will cost us in the end somehow.

Hey now. Tornadoes are natural disasters. The pensions are entirely man made. Illinois won’t get better until Illinois gets far worse.

Some of us live here, and we don’t appreciate comments like the one that you made.

It’s not the Obama scum that pay 90% of the taxes.

Is reduced or impaired the same as shall not be infringed? If so, we have an interesting precedent here.
