-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Mark was on the Coffee and a Mike podcast earlier this week discussing the highlights of his recent articles New CDC Estimates: Fatality Rate For COVID-19 Drops Again And May Surprise You and COVID-19 Debate Infected By Fallacy Of Averages.
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.

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.

The highlights would make a good article.
Repetition is the mother of all learning.
Other good podcasts for the host would be Truth in Accounting and Open the Books.
The only thing that would surprise me is if the CDC put out ANYTHING that was reliable. It’s a Criminal Death Cabal. They can’t even put out honest research/stats on the use of guns for self-defense vs. crime (old story). Propaganda-driven, with Coronahoax as the cherry on top.
I like this format Mark! You and Ted should do more of it.
New podcast added to my rotation. Awesome job Mark!

Will definitely give it a listen! Love a good podcast while I drive across state lines to CV hotspots! Thankfully, I’m an essential worker – so no covid for me! 😛
I believe in interview Tucker quoted average death by covid age as –82!! That says a ton
