Why does the city of Chicago want to tax the mess out of it's residents through sales taxes and the like? A large number of the people using city services/resources are from the suburbs and aren't paying anything for them, particularly services like public transportation. I find this very irritating. That's why many people drive outside the city/county... to avoid the ridiculous taxes!
Personally, I like the idea one alderman suggested... a city income tax. That would allow for the people who are working in the city to pay their fair share for the services they are using, without burdening the disadvantaged residents in the city.
