My DuPage County tax bill has included the DUPAGE airport for decades,


What's the tax rate that supports the airport?



no benefit to me or 99.999% of the population


Only if you and 99.999% of the population are hermits. Do you also believe
roads benefit only drivers?



Well, the concert is enjoyable outside in the park on a blanket, for FREE!


That implies an admission fee is required to actually attend the concert.
So this former public-use airport has been converted at taxpayer expense
into a venue for private businesses? Do you have any idea what Daley's cut
is?

It's obviously now a significant source of noise pollution.



And the firefighters from Meigs are now deployed to serve all taxpayers.


They weren't previously?
