There are many reasons to distrust the mayor when he says Chicago is broke.
There are many examples of civic problem solving throughout the city that deal effectively with perplexing and long-standing social and economic problems. They are run by civic champions who have passion, skill and experience. They just lack power.
And money.
So this book is an attempt to correct the record. To gin up a serious city-wide conversation about what is possible in Chicago.
The book is divided into three sections.
Section One is about money that has been stolen from us. This is money we should not have spent and should not continue to spend. We have corruption experts Professor Dick Simpson and investigative journalist Thomas J. Gradel starting us off with “The Cost of Corruption in Chicago.” Then we have “The Cost of Toxic Bank Deals for Chicago” by Jackson Potter of the Chicago Teachers Union and concluding with “The Cost of Police Abuse” by Jamie Kalven of the Invisible Institute (and recent Polk Award winner for his reporting on the killing of Laquan McDonald).
Section Two is about money that is hidden from us. This is a one-chapter section featuring my piece, “TIFs – Billions Off the Books.” This is about the property taxes collected by Chicago’s Tax Increment Financing districts.
Section Three is about money we are not collecting but should be. Here Hilary Denk of the League of Women Voters of Illinois writes about “A Progressive Income Tax for Illinois.” Professors Ron Baiman and Bill Barclay of the Chicago Political Economy Group speak to “A Financial Transaction Tax for Chicago.” Amara Enyia, a candidate for mayor in Chicago’s 2015 election, addresses “A Public Bank for Chicago.” - See more at: http://www.wearenotbroke.org/introduc...
Amara Enyia is a public policy consultant across policy areas. She served as the Chief Executive Officer of ACE Municipal Partners LLC, a full service municipal consulting firm that works with small and mid-sized cities in the Chicago area, Central America, South America and West Africa. She has also served as Executive Director of the Austin Chamber of Commerce, Policy Director of Manufacturing Renaissance, and Public Policy Analyst in the City of Chicago Mayor's Office. Amara was a candidate for mayor in Chicago's 2015 elections.
