The cost of unfunded mandates for public service unions.

I recently attended a town hall run by a new alderman in DeKalb. The Finance Director was there and said that the entire amount of proceeds from the local property tax went to pensions and health care for retired city employees. So the roads go without repair and all services decline, but the retired employees live well. Gee, no wonder things are going so well....
