Chicago Alderman Byron Sigcho Lopez is a socialist.

if chicago cannot absorb that many immigrants then the city is broke any way. illinois has been broke for years, despite jacking up property taxes. many cities are borderline. they drank the 'perpetual 6-7 percent economic growth' kool-aid offered by lending institutions back in the 90's. then 2008 happened. now no one wants treasuries, so big bang soon.
