-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Summary and audio linked here.
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.

Big Government will not enter a judgment against Big Government. Big Government watches out for itself and nothing else
Remember folks it only takes 41% to toss a batch like this out of office.
DO IT!!!
DuPage Judge is Bonnie Wheaton she is an excellent judge. Judges do not run for re election they run for retention. Once they are elected in a general election they only run for retention. and to think any judge elected in DuPage County is a puppet of a Democrat is beyond belief. Until 2018 there never was one Democrat elected in the history of DuPage County. That is going back to 1818 people.
Sad part is that if a judge loses the retention vote they are then usually appointed to a judgeship by county executives to fill the so called vacant spot and the losing judge goes back to the same courtroom.
I bet all the mail in balloters and early voters have some regrets now, just vote no for all judges. Madigan has to go some how some way.
These are not laws. Therefore it is up to the entity to decide if they want to serve.
These are “emergency” rulings. These ruling were legal for a bit of time but they have been non binding since that time months ago.
Send him the bills that you have as he has all sorts of money and he is getting paid by the citizens of Illinois no matter what.
If you want your business to survive then move to Indiana.
I’m calling “Prickster Puppet” on this and any other Judge who has NO conception of the Laws of Constitution of the State of IL.
Idiot judges
The Chicago Tribune article printed the McHenry County judges name but not the Cook County judges names.
Does anyone know the names of the Cook County Judges?
If so, please post here.
