Since Illinois is incapable of paying their bills or setting priorities the Federal Government should step in and rewrite the Illiniois constitution addressing such short comings as paying bills, pensions, term limits, merit selection of judges, pay grades.
Why is this important?
Since it seems state law isn't able to handle the current financial crisis the Fed should step in and rewrite the state constitution such that their are no taxpayer funded pensions and no elected official gets benefits. Term limits probably would not be necessary but that should also be included in the new constitution. Also judges should not be elected or at least nothing less than the Supreme Court.
