Lightfoot eyeing ‘range of revenue-generating options’ to recover money lost to coronavirus – Chicago Sun-Times

She would only say, “The reality is that, when you have to have revenue, it’s going to impact someone — and probably someones plural. But we’re looking at efficiencies that we save internally first. I still believe that you can’t go out and talk to the taxpayers about sacrifice if you’re not making commonsense sacrifices within city government.”

The services have been dwindling for 10 years now, the money you shell out in taxes has not been worth it for a long time now and will only continue to get much much worse. The only solution is fleeing and living elsewhere.

Lightfoot has a plan to increase sales? Is it product enhancements? Improved customer service? Lower prices? I can’t wait to find out.

Massive tax increases. Who are the unions going to vote for, a Republican? Of course not.
