“Something needs to be done about our ‘urban’ culture that results in this level of violence - give me... er, US! 2 billion!”
why not give them the 2 billion? Not a penny more for anything. Period.
Then give them 30 days to clean-up the mess that is the City of Chicago.
If it cannot be cleaned up in 30 days, Repossess the whole city, then carpet bomb it. Including (especially) those in charge.
