Congressional Dems propose taxpayer-funded private pension bailout

  SPRINGFIELD/WASHINGTON (Illinois News Network) -- Congressional Democrats want a Federal bailout of private sector pensions.

Sherrod Brown of Ohio is introducing legislation that would allow underfunded private pension systems to borrow from the Federal treasury, with no interest, in order to shore up their members’ retirement fund.

McCaleb: Legislators break into song and dance when real fix is needed

(Illinois News Network) -- I've been called many things, but handy isn't one of them. When something around the house breaks, I usually take a look at the problem, dig through my toolbox, look some more, and then call someone to fix it. Don't get me wrong. I can change a lightbulb and even have replaced the battery in our smoke detector. But if something more complicated stops working – say, the washing machine – I don't have a chance on […]
