With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
WGN never even thinks to ask why it costs so much for so few units. Of course Do Nothing Durbin is there for the photo op. The guy is a gigantic waste of oxygen. Put him out to pasture already.
Scam City. What a joke. At $585k per unit there is $200k of bs in these units. Consultants. Advisors. Lawyers. Project mangers. Union wages with padded payrolls. Union BA’s getting a cut. A ghost here and there. The private sector left without all the nonsense could produce 400 units and still make money doing it. What a travesty.
Affordable for the residents? But not the taxpayers. $117,000,000 for 200 units = $585,000 each. Who is building these? Bezos-Gates-Musk in their spare time.
$585,000 per unit, bet these are going to be pretty nice living spaces. And, where is this funding coming from, who pays, how much will this cost the actual homeowners to buy one of these affordable unit?
They will be free as Zippy dictates, give it
5 years for the homes slums after that,
Obama center no one will see it after 10
Years. Let’s all listen for that flushing noise.
Affordable, after The Machine gets it’s cut.
