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.

Is this representative of black on black crime?
<just asking for a friend>
Does this mean the rules of war apply?
For years the Klan lynched Blacks, burned their homes and tried to exterminate them. The Democrats are achieving the KKK’s goal far more brutally and effectively than the Klan could have ever dreamed of
Dems support of abortion is in practice genocide of blacks. You won’t read a peep about this in the MSM though.
Except in Afghanistan, young men were fighting a war. In Chicago, they are shooting each other over stupid social media ‘rapper’ beefs. It’s such an easy problem to solve. JUST STOP SHOOTING EACH OTHER!
The people most hurt by soft on crime Democrat policies are inner city Blacks — the ones that Democrats keep locked into a life of failing schools and government dependency.
And yet these same Democrats keep getting elected.
Elected? Or selected? November 8 was run entirely out of Langley. As for crime I forget the exact number but 80-90% of the murders of blacks was by other blacks. Very little of it is done by Whites. Kim Foxx is a bigger danger to blacks than MAGA.
According to HEYJACKASS.COM the average homicide and shooting stats since 2012 average 80% black and 15% hispanic with ALL OTHER races contributing a whopping 5%. Dig deeper into the numbers and it reveals that of the 5% about 3% of those murders were victims killed by blacks or hispanics. 1151 murders reported in Illinois in 2021, over 800 in Chicago and the problem is some resident in rural Illinois who has owned a firearm since 1970 that has a magazine capacity of 15 rounds.
Yet, the WH preaches that the biggest threat to the U.S. is white supremacy? What a load of hogwash!
The country is being run by woke incompetents.
The reason they call you a white supremacist nacsee is because it dehumanizes you. It becomes easier for the antifa/Biden brown shirts to kill/jail/deport/re-educate white supremacist nacsees because they are awful people. They know exactly what they are doing. That’s why the kids on college campuses show up by the hundreds to shout down anyone who disagrees with white supremacist nacsees and causes violence against white supremacist nacsees. They’ve been trained and conditioned to dehumanize you.
Nacsee? Whazat?
Illinois HB 5855 if passed will make criminals out of thousands of law abiding citizens. Meanwhile in Chicago/Cook County violent criminals hit the revolving door of the criminal justice system on a daily basis. The stupid democrats who run the state do not realize or care that Illinois does not have a violent crime problem. Chicago does. Illinois does not have a gun problem, Chicago does.
It is not going to change; it will only get worse. No Cash bail will let the criminals run wild.
Correction: “… run wilder.”
