-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Summary and audio linked here.
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.

This is something which will break our country and it was brought to you by the Democratic Party.
Love watching these Dem city mayors struggle with their sanctuary city stupidity.
Also love seeing Chicago southsiders pushing back on Dems putting immigrant camps in their neighborhoods.
This could really end up blowing up in Dems faces in 2024.
That brings a big smile to my face!!
Brandon, why don’t you help yourself. Issue an executive order recinding the Sanctuary City status of Chicago.
If you need anymore management advice just get in touch with WP Management and they’ll hook you up with Old Joe.
Brando has zero understanding of immigration policy and the impact it can have. It can absolutely break our country, and Biden’s wide open policy is well on the way to doing so. Based on recent polls it appears many Chicagoans have buyers remorse with Brando. He truly is an idiot.
Brandon knows exactly what he is doing. We are an economic zone, not a country, and he believes a majority of the residents of the economic zone will vote straight ticket Democrat for 100 years, just like Mexico voted for one party – PRI – for 100 years without interruption, after all the migrants are settled and given amnesty.
Brandon’s sorry you feel this way, but your deplorable xenophobic ways and diminished quality of life is not a concern of his right now.
