School closings: What's $122 million among friends?
Wait! I thought closing 54 schools, mainly in Chicago black community was supposed to save CPS $560 million in "avoided costs" over 10 years (the figure they gave ABC News was $600 million).Of course, I never believed any of that. But that's because I never believe anything coming from Rahm's liar-in-chief, Becky Carroll or school-closing 'crat Todd Babbitz. They were born to lie.
But now, WBEZ has given me one more reason to disbelieve. When they and Chicago Magazine began questioning CPS about the numbers, the numbers suddenly changed. CPS now claims the number is $438 million.
Where did the other $122 million go? Rahm's people say they made an “honest mistake” when adding numbers.
