COMMENTARY: New legislative cycle, same old chaos

As a new General Assembly legislative session convenes this week, the same political chaos continues. The newly-established Democratic super-majority continued to elect the same corrupt leadership in Michael Madigan and John Cullerton, just as Republicans did the same with Jim Durkin and Bill Brady. This only confirms that the duopoly embraces corruption. In other words, the same political clusterfuck still exists: Illinois still spends nearly $143.79 billion for every $108.53 billion taken in. The state has an operational debt of […]

Property rentals and letting doesn’t have to be difficult

The property rental market is still dominated by private landlords whose property portfolios might only include a single or a small number of properties. With the potential drop in returns and the increased cost of rental, such as the expense of complying with local authority requirements, means that many of these landlords are looking to reduce other costs.

Inheriting a spouse’s debt

My question is about each married individual’s responsibility in case of the death of the other. I will use my husband and I as an example. We have separate bank accounts, separate loans, and separate credit cards except for our heating utility company. Our marriage is the second for each of us. While I have established a very good credit history, my current husband has bad credit. Will I be responsible for paying off his debt if he should die […]

SPRINGFIELD/DAVENPORT, Ia. (Illinois News Network) -- There will be no shortage of milk for hungry families in Illinois – in fact, there may be too much. Food banks across Illinois are facing a unique challenge. They have just a few months to hand out over 315,000 gallons of milk. The United States Department of Agriculture is donating the milk because it wasn't sold due to the tariff tit-for-tat. Mike Miller with the River Bend Food Bank in the Quad Cities said […]

Auto makers scaling back autonomous car promises at CES

With the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) kicking off Tuesday, we’re getting a sense of the kind of technologies that some of the world’s leading companies have planned for 2019 and beyond. Despite all the hype of recent years and predictions by Elon Musk that they’d be a common sight on the road by now, we see very little in the way of driverless cars.
