Is anyone really surprised? They lived off the money from a single industry, for years, and never bothered to put that money toward known future costs. You know, like the retirement funds of civic employees. Don't politicians always tell us that we have to save money throughout our entire lives, in order to fund retirement? Why don't THEY?
