Way to go, Rahm. Guess your boy in the White House will have to funnel more taxpayer cash into your corrupt city under the guise of “rebuilding infrastructure.” To the rest of us, it looks like money laundering.

Cities promised exorbitant pensions and never funded them, relying instead on income from future tax revenues, never once thinking about the taxpayers who are paying the bill.

I think a lot of taxpayer money has been quietly pumped into Chicago by Obama.

Just recently a boatload of money went to solving the asian carp problem but it turned out that they never even looked at the shipping canal and the money went into the Chicago Sewers. The Army Corps of Engineers now wants $8 billion for the same thing again and their plans are for Chicago sewers again.

In 2009 Obama appointed Chicago crony Cameron Davis as Great Lakes Czar and give him a $20 billion budget. Since then, Davis has disappeared from the face of the earth wit the money.

Ah, libs.

They understand nothing.

They cannot create.

They cannot analyze.

They have an unbroken record of failure.

And yet we let them run things.

CW-II...it’s closer in the mirror than it appears.

Most of IL (outside of C(r)ook County would LOVE to see Chicago go down in flames and be declared bankrupt. The problem is that IL is controlled by the Dems and nothing good is likely to come of this short of dropping 7 megatons on this cancer by Lake Michigan.
