And basically nothing more than coffee, donuts, and fast food will be bought or sold in Cook County.

Pennies are such a pain. They should probably round it up to the nearest nickle./s

"a penny on the dollar" sounds like, well, pennies.
However, "hiking the combined sales tax in Chicago to 10.25 percent" is something that I just can't believe won't have a major effect on Chicago's economy.

No matter what the fiscal problem is, the only answer democrat socialists have is “raise taxes”.
They never curb spending. They just want everyone else to curb their spending.
This is not leadership. This is not servant leadership. It is not problem solving. If it were, this “solution” would have fixed a million budget problems by now.
