Ted Dabrowski - Pension Crisis in Illinois

Ted Dabrowski, as Vice President of the Illinois Policy Institute, discusses the origins of Illinois's broken pension system at length, and offers up potential solutions, especially in light of the Illinois Supreme Court's decision that a 2013 legislative effort to fix the problem, Senate Bill 1, was declared unconstitutional. The Illinois Policy Institute is a not-for-profit think tank based in Chicago that develops and recommends solutions to the state's economic and fiscal problems, with its goal being to promote personal freedom and prosperity in Illinois.
