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.

JB “I forced your business to shut down and you’ll go to jail if you open…. but don’t worry i let all the violent ones out”

Dictator Prickster. Letting real criminals out of prison so they can go rape and pillage innocent members of society while wanting to put honest, hard working business owners in jail for trying to operate a business that pays taxes and salaries of other hard working citizens.
