Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

I’m tired of one thing and one thing only from are worthless Illinois politicians, DEMAND is that the only word in the Illinois politicians dictionary.
Federal officers will be enforcing Federal laws; such as, arresting felons found with weapons or threatening federal employees or destruction of federal property. Davis and Rush are hacks who spout the party line to non-thinkers. By the way, last evening though hot and muggy saw fewer shootings than previous weeks. Do you think Davis and Rush helped in any way
Out of the three, I’d believe Raja at least somewhat. Rush and Davis just bleed their districts. ?

Danny Davis and especially Booby Rush are the armpit of the government. Who gives a flying fork what they have to say.
Demand in 1 hand sh&t in the other
These congressmen request the Feds coming to Chicago be clearly marked by their clothing and vehicles. What for Congressmen, so they can be targeted by Your Thugs? I say ‘ell NO!
They say the Feds coming to Chicago will cause Chaos.
No…Chaos by communists and thugs have already ruined Chicago and more of their destruction continues. The Chaos the Feds coming to Chicago will create will be the apprehension of Criminals and Communists.
GO FOR IT FEDS. And No need to bow to these three congressman’s Demands!
Bobby Rush is a terrorist. He should have been blown up in the FBI raid at the Black Panther HQ and by a miracle of timing escaped. That little bit of luck is his claim-to-fame and his street cred. He has profited by it for his entire pathetic life. Like Yassir Arafat and Osama Bin Laden, each day that he is alive is an affront to civilization.
Danny Davis and Bobby Rush rocks the house baybay.
They sure do for Thugs, anarchists and Criminals.
Go Feds!
Criminals, Terrorists, Anarchists are not stopped with kidd gloves! Give these people what they deserve! No policeman, soldier should have to take the dish these communists serve.
GO FEDS!
