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.

Bread and circuses for everyone! The state comandante and his local field marshal are patting themselves on the back for opening up all that they ordered closed in the first place. And get this, government employees through out the state “might” eventually return to work!
Look up Stockholm Syndrome…
