That's just like blaming the "evil SUV" for going wild and hurting people.
Sorry, it's the criminal behavior of the political ruling class at all levels where the blame rests. Just how did the "Illinois pension code" come into existence? Did it spontaneously form?
Sir, I think your HALF right. Meaning yes it’s “the criminal behavior of the ruling class” but it also took a million or so Chicago moron voters to elect the marxists that voted for all these pensions!
Same goes for Obama, tens of millions of voters voted for him? Ergo, we got what “they” deserve!
