"It’s no surprise that working for the city can land someone a pretty sweet retirement deal. A taxpayer watchdog group Tuesday released a list of the top 200 pension earners in Chicago, and all of them make more than six figures annually. The top earner on that list could make more than $7 million off of taxpayers over his lifetime. Many of the top earners retired in their 50s and early 60s and enjoy 3-percent compounded raises every year."


"Martire says there will need to be more revenue, especially in about 2021, where taxpayers will owe upwards of a BILLION more on top of what they’re paying into the systems now."
