-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Michigan, California, New York and Illinois have all passed legislation that consolidates authority over land use issues and rules with state-level bureaucrats at the expense of local governments that could have altered their own zoning codes to stem the tide of industrial green projects like solar and wind farms.
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.

What this disguises is the tremendously profitable assignment-of/piracy-of:
water-mining rights in land-locked counties for benefit of for-profit actors being facilitated by corrupt local governments.
Illinois local communities are ‘Vulvar winking’. Corrupt local governments (completely the fault of complacent/complicit local populations) will exhibit winking vulvas for stallions in heat (fully erect economic predators). Result: stallions ram it in, achieve their ‘payload’, leave the mare and her keepers to deal with the consequences and the expense of those consequences.

Fascism by any other name.
Blue states carrying out the democratic path to the communist state. The taxpayer has NO input, only the ruling communist legislators do. A sickening truth. Everything they do, touch is for the communists benefit. Next up the changing of the police force against America’s Constitutional republic and its’ good people. 5g towers and license plate readers going up all around town.
It may be time to leave before Pritzger, his rag tags and the CCP put up the road blocks.
