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.

How can this man say things like this and not be questioned by authorities?
For competency!
He hates Trump and 80 million of the Trump followers.
So, are all Trump supporters Rotten to the Core?
According to Mr. Pritzker it sounds like it.
He probably hates downstaters too but plenty of downstaters voted for him just the same.
Good grief this clown is delusional isn’t he ?
I guess he imagines that releasing a statement makes him a statesman- so obviously craves national attention it is pathetic. “Remove what’s rotten in order to rebuild”? The jokes practically write themselves on that one.
This psychopath knows very well what really happened at the Capitol. As do 74 + million voters. His impeachment was just the icing on their Devils Fraud Cake.
The capital riot was a political setup by crazy Nancy and she knows it evil wicked woman.
Exactly.
The state smells because of Pigster and the rest of the demoskanks that hold office.
Sniff sniff I smell something rotten in Springfield oh sorry it’s Pritzker
The man is a moron.
