    Think of all the interest that is being earned by the state by not releasing funds due to the budget fiasco.

    A quarter of a billion, if not more by now, is owed out in lottery payments.

    Now the Motor Fuel Tax funds.

    I wonder how much interest is earned every day that a budget isn't passed?

    And these are only two examples. I bet we can't comprehend how much they are racking up. Probably more is earned in interest than Rauner is trying to cut from the budget.

    Don't you just love Illinois?
