Of course, there are not many places outside third-world dictatorships which have as criminally-dishonest a governing class as Chicago! Seriously, I love that city - the restaurants, the theaters, the microbreweries, the beautiful lakefront, the museums ... how could anyplace so nice keep such a hideous government election after election? It really baffles me.

Americans are morons. We have no memory. We have no wisdom. We have no shame. We will continue to commit political, economic and social suicide until the last billionaire scoops up the last pittance of the last wages of the last line worker and locks the gate on us all. - California Jane
