-- 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.

A bunch of votes
fromfor Harris will suddenly appear from the Lookee What I Found part of Chicago.How to stop this?
Election day must be Election Day. One day. With ID required to vote. Only deployed military overseas get absentee ballots. No more counting votes a week later.
This, of course, has to be passed by the same
scumpoliticians that are doing the cheating.Best of luck!
Another MAGA simpleton thinks counting mail in ballots is fraud. They voted and mailed in their ballot as allowed and encouraged by the law. Some of us are busy making money and travel for a living. Mail in ballots are here to stay.
Theres a difference between absentee ballots and you just being a lazy turd via ‘whatever the hell reason’ mail in ballot
Legally there is no difference. The laziness of your mind is the only turd on display.
the point has flown way too far over your head, you’re still a lazy turd if you can’t fit voting into your busy “travel schedule”
Not all of us have the luxury of sitting around the house watching Fox News all day. Some of us are actually productive members of society. Your vote isn’t more valid just because you have no life. Mail in ballots are here to stay.
Of course it’s here to stay, Democrats have a majority in Illinois and it won’t change in my lifetime. They found an easy way to cheat so why would they give that up.
Believe it or not, people have actually worked for a living since the founding of the country. They managed to find a way to vote on election day. Despite your whining, you are not facing unique hardship because you have to work. And BTW, many of those that you accuse of having the “luxury” of sitting around all day are retired after working more years than you will ever put in. Grow up.
They found a way to vote including by mail. Who cares if it offends you snowflakes.
Looking in the mirror snowflake??
Well said
correction……Newsmax…..and at least Frank and the rest of us know what is really happening!! CATCH UP
not hardly the same at all……pull your head out
So the 32,000 ballots that have meandered in from who knows where since Election Day break 58% Harris to 42% Burke in what was a close race favoring Burke? Yeah, that seems legit. The 500,000 who cast ballots on Election Day are suckers. Any wonder why turnout is so low? Chicano is doomed.
Bu Wednesday not she will have miraculously lost.
Question? Are the mail in ballots time stamped and dated by the P.O.? Any ballots that are stamped after the election date by the Post Office should be invalidated.
Stating the obvious, voting is important for reasons including that it critically determines who governs us.
If you win a significant Lottery prize, would you (assuming someone hasn’t acted for/as you) put your winning ticket into an envelope, and trust USPS to ensure effective control over the outcome? Very likely, important for you and your family.
So, why do we continue to accept this flawed mail-in voting process subject to the uncontrollable risk of fraud, unaccountable counters, and their third world delays to determine our true elected leaders?
Uh huhhhh, 10k more by midnight is my bet
In Harris’ favor, that is
You are a prophet or the man on the inside because 10,000 was the exact number found. Well done!
There’s a just posted story on of Second City Cop that a bag of 10K votes was just discovered. Election officials apologize for the error! Now that’s funny. New bags will be found until the selected machine candidate wins.
