If we had the same type of clowns who run Il.and Ca and other states like them we would be just as screwed up as those states.They spend to by votes for their party.You have a Gov. in Il that says the state made a promise to public sector emps. and must live up to to those.I would say what makes a puplic sector emps. any different then someone in private sector?They were also promised and had to take cuts.
