Hey, what ever happened to the plan to build one at Peotone? It's been ages
since I heard that mentioned.

He knows that there is no money in aviation. User fees will be
charged
and
raised to pay the graft.

Was that supposed to make sense?

In a convoluted way. Daley probably wants to get rid of Midway, but he
cannot do it the same way he did with Meigs. So he privatizes it
increase the fees users pay to access it. The lessee collects the user
fees. The lessee then pays a portion of the user fee to the Daley Show.
Eventually, the fees become excessive and users leave. The Daley Show
then announces that Midway is no longer viable and shuts it down.
This places even more of a burden on O'Hare.
The Illinois congress critters then force a funding initiative for a new
Chicago airport (which will make the $100 billion spent on Denver look
like a bargin) through the legislature. This will guarantee thousands of
high paying construction jobs and income taxes to Illinois for the next
10-20 years.

And just where in Chicago would this new airport be built?
