Politically arrogant, secretive and corrupt

Well where do I start...
There is absolutely no oversight of the tax and spend political elitists here on the north shore just north of Chicago. A 200k grant to renovate a building given to a community group to honor those that have been of consequence to the development of Evanston. The overall concept was questionable. There obviously wasn't a plan and review process at work here.
Just a handout and theft of the cash which was a $200k handout from the federal government to Evanston. And now no investigation just a call for higher taxes and because as noted in the Pioneer press article they don't want to lay off any of their friends and relatives feeding off the public trough. The city services are bad and lacking, schools are mediocre at best and the police haven't soved any of the murders that have occured over the past 5 years. What a joke of a government...or more appropriatley lack there of. The Suburbs are supposed to be haven from the cesspool of Chicago corruption and crime. Evanston is merely an exstension of these problems.
The mayor is arrogant and stupid to complimnent her arrogance. As soon as the economy improves I will defintely be selling and very happily moving on.
