Illinois buys $10 million in Israel Bonds

Illinois purchased $10 million in Israel Bonds.

The Illinois state treasurer, Judy Baar Topinka, announced Monday that it would be part of the state’s $25 million in foreign investment for 2006.

The state’s legislature recently passed a law making it legal for the state to invest in foreign bonds.

1. What's wrong with U.S. bonds?
Oh that's right, they're practically worthless.
