If they re-legalized gun ownership, they could put a bounty on rats. Pay a buck a head for dead rats, the problem would be gone in a matter of weeks.

The people of the Congo are offended by the title of this topic.
I was in the Congo 30+ years ago. It is a pretty rough place, sewage in the streets, desperate poverty, blatant corruption, coup d'etats every couple of years, etc., But in some ways it is more "civilized" than Barryville.

Plenty of white people have demanded that Raman "Noodles" Emanuel resign too, but that doesn't get reported, because they are white and conservative..

Chicago has its pension issues as well. Not to worry though because the problem is solved...simply borrow the money needed
Rahm Emanuel’s latest can kick: Borrow $10 billion for Chicago pensions
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel has floated a new plan to borrow $10 billion to plug part of the city’s nearly $30 billion dollar pension hole. It’s a horrible idea and it needs to be slapped down for two key reasons: First, it simply won’t work. You can’t borrow your way out of a debt problem.
Second, it requires Chicago to sell parts of its financial future. To make the borrowing work, the city will have to pledge future tax revenues to its bankers. And that means prioritizing bondholders over Chicagoans in case of bankruptcy.
1. Borrowing simply won’t work. Illinois already has a miserable history of borrowing through pension obligation bonds. Chicagoans and Emanuel would be wise to learn from that history by avoiding it altogether.
In 2003, Gov. Rod Blagojevich came up with the idea of borrowing $10 billion from the bond market so he could plug part of the state’s then $43 billion pension hole. He sold the illusion that taking on a new debt to pay down another one was the equivalent of pension reform. And everyone bought it.
The result? Fifteen years later, the state’s unfunded pension liability is at $129 billion, three times higher than what it was in 2003.
And Illinoisans will be paying off the bond borrowings until 2033 – there’s still $13.6 billion more in principal and interest left to go (COGFA, appendix N).
The idea was a disaster in many respects. It didn’t fix the pension problem. It delayed real pension reform. And, as always, arbitrage is a dangerous game to play, especially when it’s taxpayer money.
What’s worse, the borrowing didn’t end with Blagojevich. Gov. Pat Quinn copy-catted the idea by issuing $3.46 billion and $3.7 billion of POBs in FY 2009 and FY 2010, respectively.
That’s had a real impact on Illinois’ overall debt burden – excluding pensions – since 2000.
Which makes Emanuel’s proposal all the more absurd. He wants to pull a page from the Blago playbook to resuscitate the city of Chicago’s nearly bankrupt pension plans. His CFO Carole Brown formally floated the idea of a $10 billion pension obligation bond recently with a group of investors, as reported by Reuters and the Bond Buyer.
But it’s easy to see why a politician like Emanuel might try something like this. The city’s finances are temporarily off the edge of a fiscal cliff – Moody’s recently removed a negative watch from the city’s credit rating – so Emanuel has wiggle room to try and paper over his fiscal and political challenges.
By borrowing the money and putting it into pensions, making them nearly 50 percent funded, he’s hoping to change the required jump in city contributions that’s coming in a few years. If nothing is done, city contributions next year will be $1.2 billion and then jump to $2.1 billion in 2023.
The city will obviously have to pay down the cost of the POB over time. But through the securitization scheme described below, Rahm would hope to negotiate a funding plan that defers repayment of the bond for as long as possible.
But borrowing doesn’t solve Chicago’s structural pension problem. Chicago’s costs will skyrocket again when the city is forced to more honestly calculate its pension promises. A more conservative assessment by Moody’s Investors Services in its July 13, 2018 Credit Opinion puts the FY 2017 unfunded liability for the city’s four pension funds at $42.1 billion – nearly $14 billion more than the funds’ official numbers. That increase is not even contemplated in future pension contributions.
2. It requires Chicago to pledge financial assets. The borrowing plan is even more insidious than that. To induce bond investors to lend money cheaply – the city is junk rated by Moody’s – Emanuel and team are willing to pledge more and more of the city’s future revenue streams to bondholders. That kind of deal prioritizes bankers over everyone else, including city residents, over who gets those funding streams.
According to Reuters, “Brown said she would look to the most-cost effective financing model, noting the current model was Chicago’s Sales Tax Securitization Corp, which has been able to issue higher-rated debt by giving investors a statutory lien on the city’s share of state sale taxes.”
That means Chicago has already pledged some of its future sales tax revenues to bondholders. Next up could be local government shared revenues, personal property replacement taxes or motor fuel taxes. As Wirepoints’ Mark Glennon likes to say, Chicago is selling off body parts to generate funding. If bankruptcy comes, there’ll be far less left to fund city services for residents. The bankers will have priority over city revenues, not Chicago residents. And Chicago could find itself in an “assetless bankruptcy.”
Rather than restructuring and scaling back spending, Emanuel is taking risk with everyone’s money with a POB, including those dependent on core government services
Timely?
It’s easy to see why Emanuel might be so attracted to the idea of borrowing to fund pensions.
If the city successfully issues bonds, Rahm will be able to say he “fixed” the city’s pension crisis. In the short term, he won’t have raise taxes on residents or try to pass actual pension reforms that anger the city’s unions.
That helps his reelection chances. And if he does it right, he might remove a lot of pressure from his entire next term, assuming he wins.
But in the long run, nothing he’s doing solves the underlying risk of insolvency for Chicago. Chicagoans still face the same amount of debt, pensions remain unreformed, and every risk that existed before still remains.
Emanuel’s game only kicks the can down the road…and the can keeps getting bigger and bigger.

Illinois has a new holiday coming right up
Illinois celebrates first official 'Barack Obama Day'
By Robert Gearty| Fox News
Illinois government offices remained open Saturday as the home state of former President Barack Obama commemorated his birthday under a new state law.
The bill marking Aug. 4 as “Barack Obama Day” throughout the state was enacted without making the date a full-scale holiday.
The Illinois House narrowly rejected a plan to make Obama’s birthday a state holiday amid worries that the cash-strapped state could not afford to give state state employees another paid day off.

Obama turned 57.
The law hailed Obama’s efforts to protect the rights of Americans and build “bridges across communities.”
"It's incredibly proud for Illinois that the president came from Illinois. I think it's awesome, and I think we should celebrate it," Gov. Bruce Rauner said in signing the measure into law, according to TheHill. "I don't think it should be a formal holiday with paid, forced time off, but I think it should be a day of acknowledgment and celebration."
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Obama’s former chief of staff, wished Obama a happy birthday on Twitter, saying “57 never looked so good,” according to the publication.
Former first lady Michelle Obama also wished her husband a happy birthday on Twitter, saying, “The view is always better with you.”
Illinois, California and Wisconsin celebrate Ronald Reagan Day every Feb. 6 in honor of the late Republican president’s birthday, USA Today reported.
An Obama spokeswoman said Obama plans to celebrate his birthday with a family dinner in Washington on Saturday night, according to the paper.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

I think a full blown, paid holiday for state employees on "The Great Imposter's" birthday would be the perfect 'coup de grace' for the remaining good people of Illinois and the state itself ... and a statue ... yes - a statue with pigeons $hitting all over it.

Can we just build a big cage around it and treat it like a zoo? Make it a big theme park. Calabrian Park, if you will. You can either do pay per view or actually take an internal expedition. Includes 2 offensive operations permits. Self defense is of course expected and encouraged.
Harbor Springs to Rogers City is what I was thinking.
Obama can pay for it.

Man Fatally Shot By Neighbor After Alleged Dog Pee Argument, Witnesses Say
By Charlie De Mar
August 7, 2018 at 10:25 pm
CHICAGO (CBS) — As Chicago Police add more officers to communities, many residents in crime-ridden communities are afraid the crime isn’t going to stop.
One of the victims of gun violence this past weekend died, allegedly, over something as small as a dog relieving itself on someone else’s property.
Police say the fatal shooting happened in the 7700 block of South Shore on August 3 around 8:45 p.m. The victim was struck in the left arm and chest and pronounced dead on the scene.
It is the sad reality of how quick people are to pull a gun.
CBS 2’s Charlie De Mar reports neighbors are finding it hard to wrap their heads around, as their neighbor, Earl Young, was fatally shot over the weekend. Young was about to marry his fiancé and things were looking bright when a petty argument, allegedly over his dogs, ended his life.
Darnell Payne is not only the Dean of Sullivan House alternative school and a pastor, he’s also a mentor to many men.
He’s opened up his home to many of them.
“We get the ones CPS no longer wants,” Payne said. “They are just little boys. Hurt people hurt people.”
30-year-old Earl Young was one of those boys with a troubled past who Payne took in and turned around for the better. Young was a great basketball player, father, and soon-to-be husband.
“Puppies. I have to smile because I’m so close to crying,” Payne said.
Young was murdered Friday. He was one of 12 killed over the violent weekend in Chicago.
Payne says it all stemmed from Young’s two puppies on the porch of his Southshore home.
“The puppies were peeing on the porch. The pee ran down the porch to the neighbor’s,” he explained.
Police say Young and the neighbor exchanged words before the neighbor shot and killed him.
“How are we so petty now that we live in a world that you could lose your life over puppy pee?” questioned Payne.
Balloons were released in Young’s memory, as they were for many others across Chicago this week.
Payne admits he doesn’t have all of the answers, but says he knows where to start.
“I’m upset everyone is making this so political, but it’s so simple and that’s actually caring about where these kids are and what they are doing,” he said.
As others look to Payne for comfort and a proper send off this weekend, he is also in pain over the petty killing of one of his own.
“I have to stand before 3,400 people Saturday and make them think everything is going to be okay, when I’m not sure that everything is going to be okay,” Payne said.
Despite several witnesses, police say no arrest have been made in this case.
