Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
Illinois paid the price for embracing Fauci’s “science.” Here’s the retrospective.
Why should they? The Chitty is going bankrupt, no other choice.
Chicago needs a bankruptcy — wide out all pension obligations and start over
“Nine Chicago mayoral candidates; not one talking about financial reforms” – Crain’s
Well, if course they aren’t.
“Financial reforms” come down to some combination of two things – less spending and/or more taxes.
You can’t buy woke/progressive-n-Dem votes in Chicago by campaigning on a platform of spending less on “services,” and everyone in Chicago thinks that someone else’s taxes should go up to pay for it all – or pretend to.
I think granting a few hundred million dollars in reparations will solve all of the city’s problems. Get to it!
The Chitty of Chicago is doomed by itself. Soon to be a ghost town where only criminals will roam.
Financial reform is a third rail for IL and Chicago pols.
The only financial reform to these people is higher taxes
