A Chicago Budget Shocker!!!

TW: Stunningly Mayor Daley is raiding the parking meter fund to shore up the FY2010 budget. Who could have guessed this would happen? Ummm...anyone with half a brain.

Am glad Daley does not want to raise taxes or more likely "fees and such" but what really needs to be done is some serious warfare on the public service unions. Neither seniors nor public service union members (nor Wall Streeters!! they are the next target on the blog btw) need COLAs amidst deflationary times.
