It's past time for Chicago to go the bankruptcy route... and they shall only be the second (of many to come) formerly great municipality (after the D) to go this route.

The issue of Public vs Private funding of sports enterprises has been studied from multiple angles, and the results are consistent...the Public always loses...it has nothing to do with 'Progressivism".

If you want to delve deeper into that topic, just say so...I've got so material that addresses that challenges your perception...and lack of awareness.

Chicago would gladly play "Sucker" to keep the Bears... IF it had the money.

And just what will they tell all their pensioners when there is no money to sustain them after retirement?

This will be the biggest tragedy for today's state and city workers... the cookie jar will be empty.

'Chicago’s pension system carries more than $53 billion in unfunded liabilities — more than all but six US states.'

This is the direct result of politicians abandoning their duty and doing the bidding of public unions.

He's in charge of one of the worst run states in the country. He best not worry about Chicago losing the Bears and more about the state losing the Bears to Indiana. That's on him and his boys in the state chamber. They did work late into the night giving themselves a handsome raise but nothing on Arlington and the Bears. I've been to the different variations of Soldier Field in my long lifetime , including Bears games, but my lasting and greatest memory was seeing Pink Floyd in concert back on June 19, 1977.And, it's not front page news yet, but the White Sox are making noise about moving or a new stadium or something that will surely cost the taxpayers.
