Chicago flourishing? Yeah, right.
Did you know I've lived in places where bribing a cop is actually illegal? I've actually met cops who won't take a franklin clipped to my license.

Did you know there are towns where the Outfit doesn't run the city council and the public service unions? (Not many, but a few.)
It certainly is flourishing today. It’s a great city.

That goes for all big cities.
Oh and btw she actually beat the Chicago Machine which was backing Michael Bilandic. She reffered to it as the ‘G-d-d-ed machine.
