Illinois has reached a new level of broke - no cash to bury its indigent dead.In the past, the state has reserved about $13 million to help pay for an estimated 12,000 funerals for individuals who relied on public aid.ral directors have been told no state money so look elsewhere, charity, or local government.
Lesson? Do not die in Illinois with no money in your pocket.
"Now the only viable option --- I don't mean to make light of it -- is to leave the body at the medical examiner office and after 60 to 90 days they'll take the body to what's called a potter's field and bury it in a numbered grave." one funeral director commented.
Obama's home state has a junk bond rating, as does the other large blue state - California. Run by Demorats, these states are poster children for how badly things are getting under Demorat rule.
