Illinois State Comptroller Susana Mendoza: City Council, vote no on Mayor Johnson’s $830 million bond issue – Chicago Sun-Times

"If City Council members approve an $830 million bond issue this week, Chicago taxpayers can expect to be on the hook long-term for the costs — which will be higher — because of a chronic lack of fiscal discipline and an administration loathe to consider any trims to its budget."

Whoa Susanna, don’t you cry for me, for I come from Illinois, the taxes put me on my knees.”

Susanna goes off script here. Maybe on purpose, to give cover for JB the Hutt’s inevitable calls for tax hikes. If she’s gone rogue, then her invite to the next NPR gala will be mysteriously lost.

Our first indication as to the Mayor’s cluelessness with respect to real-world finances was when it was discovered pre-election that he was months behind on water bill and traffic tickets. Why we’d elect someone to manage a city with an $18B budget when then can’t manage their own finances is beyond me.
