Illinois Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn is getting hit with a nationwide backlash over his suggestion that the federal government bail out the state employees’ pension program. Critics have in the past several days pounced on the suggestion, made last year when Quinn, in announcing the state’s fiscal 2012 budget, said part of Illinois' long-term effort to reduce the estimate $167 billion in under-funded liabilities would be to seek “a federal guarantee of the debt.”

Good grief. Wake up people, Democrats do NOT care about the poor. They care about UNIONS. Why? Unions bankroll their elections.
This is one giant reason why California is the way it is now!
And now democrats want YOU to pay for it in addition to your state taxes
