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.

Sorry, not buying it Mr. Olusimbo Ige.
Measles was circulating before the immigrants arrived, it’s just that the ever-vigilant public health officials didn’t mention it until measles turned up in the illegal population.
I have to call BS on this
Twenty three illegals catch measles – and the Big Lie they tell us is that “New arrivals didn’t bring measles to Chicago”.
And they wonder why we don’t trust public health officials anymore. They’re all propagandists, all of them.
Just like the clot shot – “safe and effective”. Open Borders means No Borders / No Country.
How could migrants bring measles to Chicago if the Biden administration checked the health of all these people before releasing them?
Sometimes correlation IS causation.
How come Chicago is never the national leader in anything good? I sense a pattern.
The timeline of the reemergence of measles shows us that, yes, the formerly eradicated disease did reappear since the country began to be flooded with illegals.
B.S. and who really believes this headline! How F*ing stupid do they think people are? Not a problem for YEARS and open borders to MILLIONS of illegal and unchecked immigrants what do you expect. They also are brining in other diseases that the cattle are getting contaminating our foods! People better wake up before it’s too late!
Democrat plan to stay in power………you are right…..dem voters need to wake up…..the rest of us are already aware of the danger!
Yeah … sure … right … gotcha.
Wink- wink.
No wonder citizens don’t believe everything they are told.
We’re really not as dumb as they think we are … or are we?
Another great big lie to bullshit the stupid voters
Ro, easy on the language, please. (Not that I disagree.)
I worry what will happen when the music (taxpayer money) stops as in Margin Call.
