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.

Arne, I suggest you start with a renewed emphasis on fatherhood in the hood.
Also, when the term “unchurched” gonna enter your lexicon?
Also, I expect to see Chicago see fewer than 400 annual homicides when hardly anybody lives here anymore. Detroit used to set the standard nationally but now only posts about 300 homicides annually.
Chicago is safe if you do not count the Murders, Robberies, Car Jackings, Drug dealers, and smash and grab thefts. No wonder the mayor has cops stationed outside her house 24 hours a day.
Lovely words Arne, but totally a ineffective plan by itself.We need to get George Soro’ handmaiden, Kimmie Foxx, and his Pro Crime Chief judge, Tim Evans out of their positions and replaced with actual prosecutors and judges who follow the law. Once ths police actually catch the bad guys, the justice system must sentence those who are found guilty and then they must be locked up for a long, long time to protect the innocent folks that haven’t left Chiraq yet.
