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.

Again, Pritzker and The Dimwit are taking the bait and playing right into President Trumps hand, hope these two don’t gamble.
what will JB, Brando, Stacy, press, etc do if Trump does NOT send in the troops???
Pritzker just lost his scapegoat: It’s all yours JB. Now Pritzker and Democrats will further manipulate the crime data to make it look like things are much better in Chicago then they used to be, when the reality is just the opposite. Pritzker and Democrats (like the Raja) can say ‘See, coddling criminals and international terrorist gangs works’.
Actually a smart move. Back away and as this gets progressively worse both Putzger and Pinhead will look like the idiots they are
Don’t try to fix the self- cleaning oven. Let all the protesters and paid, professional big mouths fester in the pile of droppings that their mayor and government fight so hard to keep intact.
Let JB sink with this one. Go help New Orleans if they want DJT – and leave Chicago far behind. JB can take his victory lap and then stick with his sinking city by the lake while he watches other states flourish, as well as the coming success in Louisiana. All because of his ego. Can’t fix stupid.
