-- 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. Audio here.
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.

😮 My ears work very well, heard someone say trans ( I’ll insert “creatures”) have always been around!
Hmm, ALWAYS?
There was a time when humans weren’t even around, yet she says trans creatures were! 🥴
I bet if these student’s asked their adult(?) female(?) administrators to lead by example and change in front of this trans kid they would have ran away.
Am I mistaken, or is that neck of the woods getting what they voted for?
I get your point, but to be fair, the girls didn’t vote for it.
Not everyone in that area agrees or votes for that
Deerfield voted in 2020 for Biden at, depending on the precinct, D+56 to D+66, which is an 82D to 16R spread. The 2024 map at NYT is behind a paywall, but it was free for a couple of days a while back, and IIRC, almost all of Chicago’s far-left suburbs became even MORE BLUE (compared to just blue suburbs and the city became more Red).
So, yes, not everyone agrees with this, but Deerfield likely voted 75-85% for Kamala Harris.
They voted for this.
I am surprised that only one boy is working this scam.
These Deerfield Karens need to be sued by the Justice Department for violating these young girl’s civil rights.
Their parents need to sue them and the school board.
Hurray for these young girls and their parents for standing up to the lefty bullies. And I hope a law suit and some disciplinary action is coming against these silly fools who masquerade as education employees. Who on Earth wants their young daughters to be subject to this kind of sorry psycho mindset.
