QOTD: “Based on the size of its unfunded pension liabilities, Chicago is in the worst shape, with more than $62 billion worth of unfunded pension promises. Chicago has less than 33 cents set aside for every dollar promised.

The Chicago Municipal Employees plan is estimated to run out of assets in seven years, since it is only 20.3 percent funded. The police fund (funded at 25.4 percent) and the firefighter’s fund (funded at 21.7 percent) will not be far behind. The Public School Teachers’ Pension and Retirement Fund is in slightly better shape with 51.6 percent funding…

…At another extreme, Portland, Ore., has set aside less than 1 percent of what it needs to pay its $2.9 billion of pension promises.” –Terry Savage
