We speak once again to the great public defender of our public commons Tom Tresser whose book No Games Chicago was just released and can be purchased at Nogameschicagobook.com We discuss the Davy v Goliath story of taking on King Richard Daley II to stop the bid for the Chicago Olympics in 2016 which could have bankrupted the City. Tom has also written the book Chicago is Not Broke which details where the city can find the money for the people. We also talk Pilsen TIFs, high-interest public school loans and tax-payer stadiums for billionaires. You can follow Tom Tresser on Substack
