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.

As a gay man, I find this whole “trans” thing absolutely nauseating – not only is it extremely misogynistic, but it is *not* science – based, e.g. one cannot change the makeup of one’s chromosomes. To me, “gender transition” smacks of the type of horrific “medical” experimentation that a Mengele would dabble in…
Excellent, I’ve said the same thing. It’ll will be looked at in the future the same as the despicable Lobotomy era, brought to you by the same full-of-sickos-profession.
JB must have been one unhappy messed up kid. It’s the only thing that can explain the twisted views he holds now.
If born female, you’ll still be female when you die.
If born male, you’ll still be male when you die.
No amount of surgery, drugs or wishing will change that.
“Transwomen” should be banned from competing against real females.
Where are the feminists? Biological males competing against biological females is simply spitting in the face of the hard fought female progress in sports.
For shame!
When my unranked 9th grade boys soccer team play my 12th grade girls ( ranked in top 10 of the state), both of whom I coach, the girls never stand a chance. There is a huge difference!!! By demanding “inclusion” you are denying girls their chance to develop their own confidence and skills, which is the whole point of kids sports!!! Your gender questionable kid needs hugs and support from their parent, not support from outside groups forced to accept them. Forcing acceptance does not build a community, it fractures it.
Men always make the best women….everybody know this!
Why is it that democrats like round boy Pritzker cannot understand the chromosomes make up either a man or a woman and that one pretending to be opposite of what their chromosomes are does not make them what they are pretending to be?
Remember , Follow the science?
