At some point in time the voters should wake up and realize that they are supporting a system that has a parasitic relationship with them.
Money is not being spent to make the streets wider, safer or better marked Its being used to finance more hi tech ways to take money from the public. We know where the city gets its money from...US. THE QUESTION IS "WHERE DO THEY THINK WE ARE GETTING OUR MONEY FROM?" These efficiency experts who come up with these ideas need to stop and take responsibility for the crime that these impounds and fines cause. Yes people will rob you, and kill you to get money and not just for drugs as the media would lead you to believe. It is also rent, food, fines, impounds, mortgages, school, creditors. These aggresive programs effect us all. Of course the people making these laws are insulated from the law itself. They have the best in living conditions and police protection. Its likely that none of them have ever lost a vehicle to a impound for parking tickets What the city is doing with its ticket program is attempting to squeeze water out of a rock. We really need to change the way laws are decided, specifically the ones that effect us and who decides them. There should also be an accountability for every dollar extracted by the city from the public for any reason. Its past time to put a lease on these politicians. Living in Chicago is like being a serf in a medieval kingdom being ruled by greedy landlords, who have the power of life and death. Until we the public demand a stop to this extortion or rape, it will continue unabated and embraced by the city lawmakers. look at the crime level and the condition of the streets where ticket cams and seatbelt checks are abundant and see how much the city returns to its citizens. http://www.ibc34.com/chicago-potholes.html |
