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.

Abortion is the absence of care. Kinda like WTTW aborting its CPB funding.
Yet another place that JB the Hutt found to stick nonexistent confiscated taxpayer dollars. Illinois is flat broke.
How about free golf at the local golf courses and coffee at starbucks as long as he is giving things away.
If that’s what the majority of voters would like, I’m sure they could elect leaders that would implement such a request. If not, the majority doesn’t think that’s a good spend. I don’t like your chances.
Him deciding on using public tax funds for this purpose is repugnant. I suppose though, if polled, most liberals in Chicago, Champaign and Springfield would ultimately decide anyway.
J.B. Pritzker is a modern day Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde
So the Dems recognize the World Health Organization as superior to the FDA.
The globalist Illinois ghouls will achieve their bloody ends by any means necessary.
“The progress we’ve made together to advance women’s rights in the state of Illinois, in protecting reproductive justice, in advancing equal rights, in promoting women’s empowerment, has been nothing short of remarkable,” Pritzker said Friday.
Does this worthless POS actually believe the garbage that comes out of his mouth?
“reproductive justice”, “reproductive rights” what Orwellian doublespeak.
It is more stopping reproduction. At least be honest about it.
Translation:
“The progress we’ve made together to advance the abortion industry in the state of Illinois, in protecting the right to kill unborn children at any time for any reason, has been nothing short of remarkable”
When is PIGSTER going to pay for his laws instead of the taxpayers.
They are going to be mailed to you along with your property tax bill and for good reason.
Pritzker has changed Illinois’ motto from “Land of Lincoln “ to “no foetus can beat us.”
If college students need birth control or abortion services, they can pay for it themselves. Taxpayers should not be required to pay for these services.
If you think Pritzger is going to let another state brimming with libtard citizenship and government out shine him, you’re mistaken.
