But I thought that Chicago was organized into a Utopia by a community organizer how can this be?

Even dead Chicagoans are so anxious they get up to cast their vote every 4 years.

It also tops the list of most nanny-state government. Gee, with Da Mayor looking out for all of us city dwellers, you’d think we’d all be relaxed/ sarc.

Detroit, Mich., Los Angeles, Calif., and San Francisco, Calif., ranked third, fourth and fifth, respectively.

Let's see, Kilpatrick/Granholm, Holywood crowd and gay pride kooks. I would be stressed out too if I had to live near those people.

Having lived in the Chicago area for 45 years I have never heard anyone here say they live in stressful place.

Whine, whine, whine. Phil Gramm was right.

Try New Orleans or Galveston if you want to find stressful living in a city...

When I lived in Chicago, I was a grad student at U of C. Very intense for me at least.

I found Miami to be surprisingly stressful because of the traffic on the Palmetto and Dolphin.

Chicago's rising unemployment rate, expensive gas, high population density and relatively poor air quality create a perfect storm of stress, according to measures we used to calculate the country's anxiety hot spots.

1) Big diversified economy means anybody can get a job and your childeren don't have to leave town to follow their dreams.

2) Expensive gas. True, but it has great public transportation and it's easy to get around normally. Some car commutes can be tough.

3) High population density. This is a major, lively city and people like living here. Would it be better to be Detroit?

4)In 45 years maybe there have been 4 days when I could perceive the smog, and that wasn't a big deal.

Hey, what’s wrong with stress? I perform best under stress. I am more creative. I have more endurance. I have more motivation. Do they think some unstressed guy on a nice island is going to accomplish something?

Although Chicago is a corrupt, ditzy, off-center liberal city, it had some of the most beautiful, friendly women in the world. Michigan Avenue, a windy day and skirts blowing were eye candy for young men. Pizzas ain’t bad, too. And the Maxwell street market was the last vestige of Chicago capitalism where young people could learn about the free market and how to wheel and deal.

Although tough and sometimes unforgiving, the damn liberals ruined a fine city.

Enjoy it before it slides into the Pacific Ocean.
