In the 16 years since you left Chicago, the sky hasn't fallen. The percentage of population with a college degree is the highest of the country's 7 largest cities (http://midwest.chicagofedblogs.org/?p=3048 http://midwest.chicagofedblogs.org/?p=3048), which implies educated people are disagreeing with you. Also, if your claim is about taxes, you seem to be misinformed as:
- Wisconsin has higher income taxes than Illinois
- Kenosha and Madison have higher property tax rates than Chicago
The parking meters were sold 10 years ago under a different mayor, update your talking points. Meanwhile, Wisconsin is handing out $3 billion to a Chinese manufacturing company (http://money.cnn.com/2017/09/18/news/scott-walker-signs-foxconn-deal/index.html http://money.cnn.com/2017/09/18/news/scott-walker-signs-foxc...). This is the same Wisconsin (and same governor) who cut school funding a few years earlier (http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/statements/2014/sep/07/greater-wisconsin-political-fund/scott-walker-cut-school-funding-more-any-governor-/ http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/statements/2014/sep/07/g...).
What kind of state cuts school funding and then gives billions to a Chinese company? The kind I don't move to.
