“Chicago Pensions: Is There Hope For Reform?” – because we need to be honest about benefit cuts.
“Is Chicago The Next Detroit?” – the differences between the two cities matter.
“Actuary-splaining Chicago’s Pension Liability: A Deeper Dive” – in which I try to explain the crash in funded status for non-experts.
“No, Pension Obligation Bonds Aren’t A Form Of ‘Refinancing’” – don’t be fooled by the politicians!
