Do the people of Chicago benefit from all of these high taxes and regulations? You would hardly know from how it looks on the ground. But whatever, keep ignoring these issues, it doesn't matter. They aren't going away and the city will suffer from its horrible leadership and bloated government. (I just had a detailed look at the city's most recent budget, holy shit).

Again, it's not about ignoring them. It's about taking a holistic view of the problems facing the city and giving the appropriate eye roll when partisans rage about "regulations" as if that's the beginning and end of the myriad issues. Maybe once you get a few years in Chicago under your belt you'll start to understand things more broadly.
