Must-watch. "You shouldn't have an opinion on that. That is the point. Why do you have an opinion on equity? You've never experienced oppression so shut up.... Just stop... You are not oppressed.... Enough... You stop it! You are a white male. Your skin is light enough. Stop it."

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.

Diversity. The false belief that a chain can be strengthened by adding weak links.
Those weak links together, being consistent with their voting patterns, form the base of the Democrat party.
thanks for that…I’m going to use that quote night and day!
Hey Doctor. I never owned any slaves and you never picked any cotton.
So go have another hit off that crack pipe.
Oak Park is full of idiots. I mean it really is. Apparently Oak Park just adjusted their treat or treating hours to 4 to 8 pm, instead of 3 to 7pm, because of ‘equity’ issues. Yes, racial and social ‘equity’ issues are the reason why trick or treating hours were changed. Resident Will Sims alleges – WITHOUT EVIDENCE (I love that phrase) – that the hours unfairly target working parents and people of color. ““I think it targets people who are working people,” Sims said. “It’s unfair to them. It’s targeting people from other communities of Austin and Maywood, neighboring… Read more »

Oak park is kinda pricey. She should push for more section 8 housing there, a few abortion clinics Maybe a housing project too! And a doubling of the property taxes. If she’s gonna talk the woke talk she should walk the woke walk.
Wow. Just Wow. This woman should be the poster child for why liberalism is a mental disorder.
Love the reaction of the other guys in the room. Their tone suggests “here she goes again”. It must be hard having so little actual faith in your convictions that you feel the need to shout down any opposing view.
I think she’s been eating paint chips, or drinking mercury
There is no living with lunatics. Let’s agree to go our separate ways; let people like this woman run their own lives, and let the rest of us run ours, separate from those whose personal philosophy is immiscible with ours. If she wants to yield her life, her property, whatever, to others she deems “victims,” by all means she’s free to do so. The moment she insists she has the moral right to use force to make ME (or others like me) do so, she’s committing an act of aggression. PS: Note, she’s well-educated. There is debate about whether people… Read more »
Wow, all the hate and intolerance on the part of the Fascist Left is out of control. Why can’t they simply sit down and try to understand us white men better. White men are now officially oppressed in Oak Park!
I’m in favor of forcing these clowns to give up the benefits of innovations produced by “dead (or live) white guys.”
Essentially all of the modern world’s most useful innovations were created by “white guys.” Those who don’t like that are free to stop using indoor plumbing, central heat, air-conditioning, food pasteurization, microwave ovens, natural gas fired stoves, gasoline, diesel fuel, etc., etc. (Oh, I forgot, lithium-ion batteries, and all other batteries, for that matter.)
All they have to do it move to Kentucky to experience that.
Tooooo funny!! In tonie oak park
