I am surprised at the acceptance of the new Millennium Park by the citizens of Chicago. For a city that has a school system that is constantly running out of money, an infrastructure that needs a lot of repair and a public transit system that is constantly short of money, people seem to be quite agreeable to spending $475 million for a monument to Mayor Richard Daley.

I hope this is fresh in everyone’s minds when the next property tax increase is put in place.
