Deadbeat Illinois Evicted From Facility: DMV Office Hasn't Paid Rent in 13 Months

Illinois Review reports:
For 13 months, the Secretary of States' office refused to pay rent on its Belvidere facility. Due to that non-payment, the Department of Motor Vehicles is being evicted.

Local radio station WIFR spoke with one of the building's landlords, Diana Toft. Toft and her husband own the building on Pearl Street and they say they’re not willing to sign a lease because of the terms offered in it. Toft says the state owes them 13 months of unpaid rent, saying the state hasn’t paid since June 29th, 2013.
Just a reminder to those who want to "extend" credit to the state of Illinois. Will Illinois government workers be told "the check is in the mail" in the near future? As you can guess, you can't get away with not filing and paying taxes to the state of Illinois. Only, government is exempt from the rules of civilized society.
