Mike “MRSA” Madigan infects Public Education.
This is not an insult; it is reality at its most primeval.

Madigan has been a member of the Illinois House of Representatives since 1971 and Speaker of the House since 1986 – minus a little blip. He presently refers to the intentional pillaging of teacher and other public pensions as the work of “previous legislatures.” Hmm…
What intelligent and qualified person would choose to be a teacher in Illinois?
Past, present and future teachers have legislation that pillages their pensions along with raising and collecting their future, past and present contributions. Having paid, as required, 9.4% of their gross income for decades, they will now be required to “contribute a mere 2% toward their own pensions.” Well, 9.4% + 2% = 11.4% of their gross incomes to be paid with no legal assurance that underfunding/pillage will not occur. If they actually get to retire, cost-of-living could still starve or cripple them shortly thereafter. Who in the state will repay them their own
