Jul 28 - Obama's Religion Unknown to Half of Americans

again projecting things, never said any of this. I have my own issues with the Democrats. But I know you are one of those "they're all the same, your vote doesn't count, Illimunati" blah blah blah guys. So having an honest and realistic conversation with you is pretty much out of the question.

I know who both of them are.

I know how you come off on these boards with the nonstop anti republican pro Obama democrat ads.

U can lump me into whatever group u want I'm still going to put your set on blast. This 2 party system obviously isn't working. The USA is in the !!ter. States are declaring bankruptcy yet you think Obama is stimulating the economy. It's !!ing insanity

I suggest you go take a government class or something, since you think Obama can by himself stimulate economies, or prevent "states from declaring bankruptcy" something that isn't happening btw and im pretty sure a state cant file for bankruptcy

SPRINGFIELD - Facing an ever-growing pile of bills, crushing debt and less tax money flowing into the state treasury, Illinois is broke. But could the state climb out of its nearly $9 billion budget hole by declaring bankruptcy?

No, say tax and budget experts.

Federal law permits individuals, businesses and local governments to file for bankruptcy reorganization and sometimes debt forgiveness. States are not covered by the law. No U.S. state has ever declared bankruptcy.

"A state is not going to just shut down," said Elizabeth McNichol, a state budget specialist at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a nonpartisan Washington, D.C., think tank.

"As bad as things are, no state is going to have zero revenue coming in," McNichol said. "It's really just a matter of choices."

So, rather than having a court restructure its finances as in a bankruptcy filing, a state would have to reorganize its spending and debt on its own. That's the current challenge for Gov. Pat Quinn and lawmakers.

Illinois has long balanced the stack of bills on the comptroller's desk very carefully. Certain payments must be made on certain days, so other bills sometimes get pushed back a few days - or longer - to make sure there is enough cash on hand, said a spokeswoman for Comptroller Dan Hynes.

But should state finances became especially dire, Illinois could keep going by not paying back money it has borrowed. Such a move is unlikely and the consequences of default would make the state's financial situation worse.

That's because it would greatly hinder the state's ability to borrow in the future. Plus, the people Illinois owes money to could go to court to force the state to pay.

Off topic: What religion would you be if you believed in a God presence but not Christ?

since when is Stockton a state?

Who cares what he is the one fact we do know is he has been a terrible president like many others
