Inspector puts city income tax, Lake Shore Drive tolls on table - Chicago Sun-Times
Well, there's good ideas, and then there are bad ideas in this guys approach.
First things first. Never screw with our seniors. If it wasn't for them you would not be here. So say thank you. A "city income tax" seems not so bad provided it applies to all income levels. You may not need a "Toll" on Lake Shore Drive had not the "Last Mayor" gave away our parking meters. If there was some legal way of getting them back, smash that idea. Screwing with fire fighters, and police when you can't even get the emergency radios working? Start finding out why that problem hasn't been solved before doing such.
And now for my final suggestion. Legalize pot, and approve the sale and use of medicinal marijuana. That should give you hundreds of millions, and possibly billions in additional revenue. Look at what drinking and driving does to countless peoples lives? Pot can never compare to such damage done by booze. Now that is an approach slightly better.
