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 if all these illegal aliens ended up being republican voters sometime down the road? Would the democrats still be so welcoming them in their sanctuary cities?
Stuffing the ballot boxes is one thing but importing voters is another.
If they voted Democratic then Obama and Biden would be laying bricks themselves.
As a contributor (aka “taxpayer”) I don’t want to support people who broke our laws.
The only expenditure I would support is transporting each and every one of them back to their home country.
It’s obvious there’s a grand plan – Citizens being replaced by masses of illegals.
We’re being played, folks.
Vote in November and throw the bums out!
The House Dems should have thought about the border crisis earlier, when Bumbling Biden took office and opened up the gates. The big blue states get a couple of hundred illegals and suddenly the sky is falling. Liberal progressive Democrats are worthless pieces of trash.
