Will A New Mayor Professionalize Chicago And Save The City Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars?

     Chicago will soon have a mayoral election. Will the new mayor continue with the harm that a previous long standing mayor provided? That mayor loaded every city agency with political cronies, many of them incompetent - layers upon layers of unnecessary positions given to often unqualified people, all in the interest of currying favoritism and securing his power base. It came at a great cost that continues to harm Chicago. In desperation, and in order to pay for years of waste and the high expense of funding cronyism and clout, the city sold off for a song its most valuable assets.
       A good person deserving of getting elected and re-elected in future years, will examine every city department and ensure that Chicago is no longer burdened with bloated departments. A reputable outside agency that has no ties to the mayor, city or anyone else associated with the city, should be hired to clean house. Decades back, an outside firm was hired to streamline and reform the police department. Its findings were never released. The police department is the most expensive department the city funds. Removing waste, bloatedness, unnecessary positions and units, clout, cronyism, political favoritism, incompetents and mediocre leaders from every single city department will benefit all of Chicago and save the city hundreds of millions of dollars.
