Chicago's pension system is in worse shape than Detroit's, and the Illinois Supreme Court ruling certainly isn't helping to solve the problem...

I am laughing at whoever it was that a few weeks ago was hoping IL governor would stick it to IN economically because of the religious freedom act... Good luck with that.

That would've been the resident genius of this board - Cainer.

Sweatheart deals where retired police are getting 6-7 dimes a month have strapped the city big time. My ex's dad gets almost 7 grand a month being retired from the Chicago PD, good for him but these contracts in retrospect have burdened the city.

Understatement of the day.

Golly, I appreciate your admiration, hunk, but I can't take credit where credit isn't due. In fact I've read through the entire thread gr8 must be referring to http://purdue.forums.rivals.com/threads/more-fallout-from-rfra.17816/(correct me if I am wrong) and I cannot find anyone in that thread hoping that the Illinois governor would stick it to Indiana.

Meanwhile, I see that dying/dead story seems to have a new chapter. http://www.journalgazette.net/news/...n-developing-ad-campaign-to-undo-harm-6655236 I hope our tax dollars aren't going to go towards paying for that NYC PR firm.

Making more poor people isn't funny.

Indiana has the same issue. But, due to weird finance laws, it won't be an issue for a couple of years.

Sorry, your home state is a loser as well.

How is Kansas doing?

I wasn't laughing at making poor people. I was laughing at your notion that the state of Illinois was going to do anything to ruin anyone else economically. They're doing fine with themselves...
