Instead of looking for unpaid “volunteers” from the general population, why doesn’t the chief grifter/carpetbagger offer it as an additional opportunity to CPS for students to fulfill the statewide community service requirement for High School graduation?

They won’t need 100 volunteers. They won’t have 100 visitors in a year

Isn’t this one of the most ridiculous things ever? $740K ($61K/Month) for the Obama connected grifter…but they need Chicago people to volunteer to work in the building. Simply stupid.

I think volunteers there should take a page out of the Chicago Art Institutes’ docent book. These volunteers need to unionize and demand a living wage and the ethnic diversity of this “volunteer” workforce should mirror the ethnic diversity of Chicago’s population.

Perhaps he should go recruit in Kenya.

This is the defining feature of socialism, right? Why does it always seem to end up this way?
