The takes get worse and worse. People love to talk about the Loop being the economic engine because of analysis like Zotti's that absolutely proves it to be the case. Trying to somehow compare the network effects and business clustering of the Loop to trickle-down-economics shows you are running out of ideas. It's the mirror of people calling any government involvement "Marxism". You have become that which you claim to despise.
