State pension fund  -  $44 Billion in debt, worst in the country.

Cook County (Chicago) sales tax  -  10.25% highest in country. (Look it up).

Chicago school system  -  rated one of the worst in the country.

Of course, they're all blaming each other. They can't blame Republicans because there aren't any.
