The situation in Illinois is so bad it’s frightening but you don’t hear much about it except for in the alt media. Their pension situation is already affecting their ability to provide vital services .. fire, police etc. and like you say … it won’t be long before they go to Washington with their hand out. What happens then? Are State budgets to be bailed out by the Feds? If they so it’s Venezuela Redux!
Good luck with the projects! Maybe we’ll see you on “Shark Tank.” 🙂
