Illinois is going to die soon

Actually I have seen zero posts on tumblr about the crisis in Illinois.
Illinois has not had a state budget in over two years. You read that correctly. Our governor, Bruce Rauner, is doing fuckall for this state. He won’t approve a budget, and the ones he comes up with suck so the state senate won’t approve them. The GOP and Democrats are locked in a battle over this.
Schools are closing. A lot of schools won’t open this fall. The second largest school district in the state won’t open. The Illinois lottery is over. There’s talks of annexing the state.
Here’s an article for source: http://money.cnn.com/2017/06/29/investing/illinois-budget-crisis-downgrade/index.html
