Illinois has the lowest credit rating of any state in the nation. Every other state in the nation is operating in the same national economy, yet we are rated worst. Were not just like every other state. Were worse than every other state. Over half of all the credit downgrades in the history of Illinois have occurred under this administration. Weve been downgraded 21 times in total with 12 occurring under Quinn. Lower credit ratings mean higher interest payments for Illinois taxpayers. These downgrades will cost taxpayers hundreds of Millions of dollars. Illinois has one of the highest risks of default of any sovereign government in the world. Lately, Illinois regularly ranks in the top 10 highest default risks with countries like Iraq, Greece, Pakistan and Iceland. 15. Illinois pension systems are the worst funded pension systems in the nation. Assets in the state pension systems are $96 Billion short of covering our estimated liabilities. This is a debt that will eventually have to be paid. The payments on this debt threaten our financial solvency. 16. $0 $20 $40 $60 $80 $100 $120 FY02 FY03 FY04 FY05 FY06 FY07 FY08 FY09 FY10 FY11 FY12 Billions Unfunded Pension Liabilities 17. Dick Ingram Head of Teachers Retirement System: One forecast says the TRS could be insolvent by 2029. 18. If anyone doubted the severity of the pension problems, the mayor said, last week's events [Moodys credit rating downgrade of the City of Chicago] should serve as something of a wake- up call. "Denial," he said, "is not a long-term strategy." 19. Chicago is also fast approaching a day of reckoning. Chicago Public Schools last week announced 2,100 layoffs, which Mayor Rahm Emanuel blamed on a $400 million spike in pension payments. "The pension crisis is no longer around the corner," he said. "It has arrived at our schools." Moody's MCO -0.73% downgraded the city's general-obligation bonds last week due in large part to rising retirement and debt service costs, which comprise about a third of its operating budget. Chicago plans to dump 30,000 retirees on Medicare and the ObamaCare exchanges in 2017. Yet all savings will go toward pension payments, which will triple in 2015. The mayor has warned that the bill could force a 150% spike in property taxes. - Wall Street Journal, After Detroit, Whos Next?: Creditors and Unions are Learning a Painful, but Useful, Lesson; July 21, 2013 20.

North Carolina state Senate Majority Leader Phil Berger, This tax only adds to the cost of hiring workers and thus makes unemployment worse." GOP lawmakers have passed a pro-growth plan that will slash the state personal income tax rate to 5.75% from 7.75% by 2015; cut the corporate tax to 5% from 6.9%; and eliminate the state estate tax. All of this will spur growth and job creation. Yet unions and others on the left pummel the plan as a giveaway to the rich. - Wall Street Journal, Moore, Stephen: Why are North Carolina Liberals So @&%*! Angry?; June 19, 2013 24.
