Why didn't you explain it? Is this more hell?
- lionkor 3y agoWhy didnt you? Now I have to go watch the video on expensive data, darn it
- djbusby 3y agoI didn't watch the video then but I will for you. It's about the Chicago Parking deal in 2008 with some machines for parking. Daley gave control of parking meters to a private company until 2083. Sold out his citizens. For a super discount. And now, in a shocking twist, the private company is squeezing the citizens and government. It's a pretty good watch.
- lionkor 3y agoOh, wow, thank you! Appreciate that a lot
- tptacek 3y agoI'm not going to stick up for the deal itself, but parking in Chicago got better after that deal, and downtown parking in Chicago is cheaper by far than NYC, and than Boston. It's about as expensive as Seattle is. Downtown parking shouldn't be cheap!
