This story keeps popping up. Virtually identical missives, save for the name of the municipality involved. Who could or would have seen this coming?

The pension time bomb is exploding all over Illinois and will only get larger every year till the state and cities get rid of them. Have to change the State constitution to allow for changes to the current nightmare that is going on. None of this is likely to happen in your lifetime.
