Okay, but so is NYC, yeah? Why do people think a big city like SF with tons of money in it is immune from the pattern most other big cities with tons of money in them have gone down?
- mikestew 9y agoIs NY batting better than 3 out of 7 in keeping their governors out of jail? Because Illinois isn’t: http://abc7chicago.com/archive/8973798/ http://abc7chicago.com/archive/8973798/ Let that sink in for a minute: if you are elected governor of Illinois, stats say you’re likely to go to jail at some point. There’s your difference. Other places might have a machine, but Chicago and Illinois take it to to an extreme. OTOH, when Daley said “build a park”, they started digging that day.
- abusoufiyan 9y agoBut the governor of Illinois does not necessarily have any connection to Chicago city politics. At least 1 of those 3 you mentioned (I only bothered to look at 2) never held a position in Chicago city politics... how is this relevant?
