The subject this time is Illinois pensions and turmoil in Greece.
I believe a minimum of seven Illinois cities are in serious and immediate trouble, unable to meet current obligations. Numerous others cities are in serious trouble over pensions eventually.
We also discussed Greece.
I stated, as I have on my blog, that it appears Greece is stringing the Troika along, purposely giving Greek citizens time to pull deposits.
Today we learned Tax Revenue Collapses in Greece; Government Denies Capital Controls; Citizens Pull €2bn in Three Days.
