Maybe Rahm can raise taxes in Chicago, and drive more of the remaining middle class and businesses out of the city???
Which would of course make his problems in the out years even worse. But, I’m sure he focused on putting a lid on this sort of financial problem until after he’s re-elected. Election is in early 2015, I believe??
This may sound odd, to raise taxes, etc. when running for re-election. But based on the voters of Chicago, many of whom don’t work or own businesses or own property, they may not care that taxes were raised. He may get re-elected even if he sticks it to the middle class homeowners and the business community.
How any middle-class resident or business owner can manage to make a go in that cesspool is beyond me.
