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.

Maybe investigate why Broadview police are not arresting violent protesters. Could it be that police were told to let the violence happen?
How about helping ICE instead of hindering them ??? Democrats had NO PROBLEM putting a fence up in Washington DC !!
Again, the simpering mayor and police chief conveniently ignore that without dark money protesters raising hell and impeding enforcement of what most of Americans voted for last November, there would be nary a whiff of tear gas in the air.
Ha, ha ha. The Broadview officials should know that if you F with the bull you get the horns.
I guess what is happening now at the ICE facility would not be happening if the governor, democrat legislators and mayors would act for the good and safety of the taxpayers and America and stop harboring and coddling illegal criminal aliens.
Stop with Your criminal, communist agenda, Democrats!
