How Brandon Johnson plans to impose $800M in taxes if he’s Chicago’s mayor – Illinois Policy

Johnson was similarly vague about how his $800-million plan would produce about $2 billion in “revenues and efficiencies” for the city. Based on the efficiencies enumerated in his “Better Chicago Agenda,” city leaders would only save about $430 million.

It will all go to funding the overly generous PONZI pensions, all the money in the world is not enough.

So, a large majority of the people who teach Chicago kids voted in favor of funding Johnson’s campaign, using their ‘not to be used for politics’ union-dues, because they agree with the higher taxes-n-fewer police-n-more social workers-n-trans porn-in-the-library CTU goals.

Well, their performance evaluations tell us that 90% of them are doing an excellent job in classrooms where only one out of 10 of their students can read or write at grade level, so they must be right. They’re teachers, after all. College graduates. Well informed critical thinkers.

Nice to know who to listen to, and who your friends are…..

Brandons campaign web site gives no time frame for $800 mil savings? Is he proposing $800 mil savings per year?, One time saving? Or what? It makes no sense. Would anyone in press try and point this out? Answer NO
