Download Chicago Is Not Broke. Funding the City We Deserve Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Do you believe Chicago is broke? Me, neither. I set out to prove by assembling a great team of Chicago experts to write short articles on how can can save and generate MAJOR revenues for Chicago. Revenues that are progressive, sustainable and NOT wrung from those who can least afford to pay. Our goal is to influence the discussions around Chicago's budget and her future. All the details are at www.wearenotbroke.org.I published this via the CivicLab (which I co-founded in 2013) in the Summer of 2016. Since then we've been invited to present at 65 public meetings all over the city! "Tom Tresser's latest book is essential reading for all who have an interest and investment in the future of our city, from City Hall to the residents of each of Chicago's 77 neighborhoods. This book offers solutions, not only for the city to dig itself out from where it is, but for taxpayers, legislators, and concerned Chicagoans, to learn about the financial state of the city, and provides a progressive and responsible path forward." - Cook County Clerk David Orr "There are only a few people courageous enough to sift through the lies and tangled webs that proves Chicago isn't broke, but the politics are. Most people won't take the time to do the research, but Tom Tresser and his team have and this book should be on your list." - Karen Lewis, President, Chicago Teachers Union

"In his magisterial Great American City, Robert J. Sampson puts social scientific data behind an argument that we all feel and experience everyday: the neighborhood you live in has a big effect on your life and the city you live in. Not only does your neighborhood determine where your nearest hospital is, what kind of schools your children can attend, or how many police officers you might encounter (and how they respond to you), it affects how you feel, how you think about the world and your place in it. Like many sociologists before him, Sampson looks to Chicago to make his insightful interventions, based on extensive data collected across the city's diverse neighborhoods. This edition includes a new afterword by Sampson reflecting on changes in Chicago and the country that have occurred since the book was initially published. He notes the increase in gun violence, both among civilians and police killings of civilians, as well as steady or growing rates of segregation despite an increase in diversity. With these changes have come new research, much of it a continuation or elaboration of the work in Great American City. He updates readers on the status of the research initiative that serves as the basis of Great American City, the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN), and summarizes how scholars have taken up his work. Many of these scholars have new tools at their disposal with the rise of big data; Sampson remarks on these changes in the field"--
