Cities deserve their Mayors. Maybe these tax hikes will change some of the political culture in Chicago.......Nah, who am I kidding.

funny how the “forced cuts” always have to be to the handful of items people are actually wiling to pay taxes for.

So how much of these tax hikes won't actually be going to pay for current employees, but former employees of the city and schools?

I'm going to bet 100 percent.

So what I'm really curious about - can't any city council just pass a budget for a future city council to deal with? I mean, the 2015 city council says that the 2020 city council must spend $45,000,000 on snow removal from luxury homes - and if that isn't legitimate, then how is any retirement plan valid past the tenure of the city council who approved the wages?

Is Rahm going to pay full tax on his family property or continue to claim it is a nonprofit property because of some legal scheme set up to evade taxes?

We have lots of Illinoid license plates starting to show up in west Michigan because so many of the idiot libs are fleeing Chicago due to the high taxes, and because it is cheaper to live here. Only to come here and vote for every tax hike proposal and for left-wing city officials.

“other new fees for....ride-sharing services”

It begins.

The unions hate Rahm, fought hard against him.
This whole freaking state is corrupt, it all begins with Madigan that pos.

Called a realtor today, I detest this county.

Democrats in action! Run a big city into the ground and expect taxpayers to pay for their ineptness.
