"Aldermen Have Jokes" & Teresa Cordova
Alderman Walter Burnett says it's either casino revenues or property tax hikes. Ben points out that the casino will raise your property taxes. Cause someone has to pay to build it. Guess who that someone will be. And Teresa Cordova, director of the Great Cities Institute at the University of Illinois Chicago, discusses economic development in Chicago. Especially in relation to poor communities, like North Lawndale and Englewood. Also, she explains cost benefit analysis. Ben bets there will be none of that in regards to a casino. Pun intended, sort of.
