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.

I’m seeing a some patterns with these friends of Epstein.
Too bad the pathetic liberal media will never ask Pritzker about any of it.
Look into Superior Bank financial scandal (and do the numbers: how much she profited while poor victims never recovered funds) Penny Pritzker if you want to understand the condescending exploitative bigotry of this Harvard Corporation Board Chair Penny Pritzker.
Oh J.B will this tarnish your future dreams at the presidential run, we will see 😪😪
All Chicagoans should read Gus Russo’s excellent history of Pritzker family: “SuperMob”.
Between JB, Tom, and Penny, this generation of Pritzkers are disgraceful blight upon civic engagement.
