if they don't pay, JPM should change the locks on the schools and sell them

It is in the state constitution.

Nutty I know, but they are in a death pact. My bride teaches in IL (we live in IA), and we have never planed on her pension being paid. Of course, we don’t really plan on our IRA or 401K being allowed to stay either.

The Chicago Public Schools will pay 6.39 percent — an extraordinary interest rate by short-term lending standards — to borrow $275 million it needs to make a mandatory payment for retiree pensions before a June 30 deadline.

Uhhhhhh. A question from the back of the FEMA Re-education camp?

What happens when the next mandatory payment comes due?

I'll take my answer over the loudspeakers.
