@StuLoren Or how about we just allow housing to be built. Don’t even need to give incentives. If someone owns a plot of land that is zoned for high density housing let them build high density housing. Stop the grifting of aldermen shaking people down at the expense of renters.
@SonRanto The reason rent prices have gone up so much is due to the city of Chicago making new construction so expensive + time consuming AND out right refusing to let people who want to build housing build housing. Let’s let people build housing. Which will lower rents. Very easy.
@LeftIsBlack It seems easier and better to let people build housing. Which would drive down rents without giving a bunch of well connected pastors no show jobs.
@glenn_cully Did he ask for a free meal? Or offer a tweet for a meal?
Complimenting someone for being great isn’t what Big Benny Boy does. He is hustling for free shit. I don’t think that is what J Will is doing.
@RichardHSerlin@jonathanchait Check out Chicago. Our mayor literally said he doesnt care about educational outcomes the metric he’s interested in is dollars spent.
@CTULocal1 We pay over $35k a year a student for some of the worst educational outcomes. Our 4th graders can’t read at same the same level as kids in Mississippi which spends less than 1/3 as much per student. We don’t have a funding issue. We have performance issue with our “educators”
@elina_vibes@DailyLoud It’s tragic that officer will need to live with that forever all because someone wanted to play in the streets at night. The skateboarder looked grown too. I don’t know how adults think it’s a good idea to chill in the street in darkness.
@DRB_1971 @iAnonPatriot LMAO. You’re clearly a vile raciest. You literally didn’t even listen to the words she said. Saw a black chick and assumed she was a pro crime asshole. She’s literally talking about how stupid this decision is…
@RaymondALopez The permit cost alone to dig up and mess with the pipes is several times that figure. Why don’t you work on a permit fee elimination for anyone installing a back-flow device?
@Andrefor40th Apologies it wasn’t a technical question regarding responsibilities. Let me rephrase.
How does banning the CPS from letting ICE know when a child rapist is getting out of lock up make Chicago a better or safer city?
@Andrefor40th What’s the virtue in forbidding city employees from letting ICE know when a child rapist is getting released from lock up?
Seems like the kind of people we would want deported vice random folks who have been here for 50 years living their life.
@Austin__Berg So if a white guy had a proposal that comes in at $300k a unit and a black guy has a proposal that comes in at $1.2m a unit and everything else is equal. At best the $300k a unit is scored 8 points less than $1.2m a unit proposal?
