Cook County has experienced some of the worst effects of the housing crisis of any area in the US. As it stands today, there are 199,778 homes (9.16% of all) that are vacant in Chicago. As a resident of Cook County for a good portion of my life, I have seen the steady rise of …
As if Chicago wasn’t already the poster child for big government, it continues to live up to that reputation with probably the most anti-liberty law a city can impose upon its people: curfews. Faced with an escalating crime rate in the city of Chicago, and a police force that has been shrinking due to budget …
