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.

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.

Zorn, Chappy, Clarence, Dahleen – Tribune, that’s why I stopped paying you… That and the fascist removal of speech by eliminating the comments section…
Isn’t it becoming more and more clear with every passing day that the Left’s mask is coming off? They at least used to pretend they loved America “even for all its faults” as they liked to say.
Now they are just fully out, admitting that they pretty much hate everything about this country.
And we’re letting them win the day, and win the narrative, recruiting many useful idiots to their cause.
Zorn is one of the main reasons that the Tribune is sinking into history and will soon be a memory as it shuts down. The National Enquirer is more trustworty.
Zorn is only following Putin’s orders
Another panderer to Wokesterism. When there is no longer a country called USA let’s see what he writes about…oh, maybe the need to regain freedom of the press which is part of the country he now tears down….yeah that’s it
Zorn hates America. Zorn hates himself. Zorn feels guilty for existing.
Zorn, shut up and walk my dog, here’s her leash. Stop talking, move on…
I agree. Let’s scrap it for “God Bless America”…
