The Mission of the Chi. PD is:
"Come Out & Play!
Discover the pleasures of Chicago Park District treasures! The Chicago
Park District manages over 220 stunning facilities throughout the city
- most can play host to your next event.
For more information about the Chicago Park District's more than 7300
acres of parkland, 552 parks, 33 beaches, nine museums, two

world-class
conservatories, 16 historic lagoons, 10 bird and wildlife gardens,
thousands of special events, sports and entertaining programs, please
continue on through the event section."

Many CPD parks aren't fit for humans. They are rundown, crime ridden,

god
forsaken places which would better serve the community if Walmart were

to
build on the property. Several downtown areas are nice but other than

that
"dump" is a better description than park.


Many urban cities have similiar problems, and non-city dwellers should
feel
grateful that cities house some unwanted residents. Walmart would
want the land for free, plus additional subsidies.


Give it to them. Think of the boon to the economy. New jobs, sales and
property tax revenue, etc. The city would be foolish not to give the
rundown drug and crime infested parks to Walmart.


Can Walmart make any deals now? Their board of directors is
short-handed.
Some kind of accident, scuba diving? snow skiing? Oh, thats right,
SPLAT!
John Denver is his co-pilot now.
