Rahm Cares!

Pretending to care about the little guy:
  • Mayor Rahm Emanuel was forced soften his plan to protect consumers against financial scams to satisfy businesses concerned about being stripped of their licenses for mere technical violations.

    But the mayor apparently is not backing down on his crackdown on alleged fraud by those who help Chicagoans file their annual income tax returns.
     
  • “These businesses are scamming honest Chicagoans under the guise of helping them,” Emanuel, who was on jury duty at the Daley Center on Tuesday, was quoted as saying in a press release.

    “There is no place in Chicago for businesses to take advantage of residents — and I absolutely will not stand for it.”

Because as you know, Rahm hates the competition, and if there's any "taking advantage of" Chicagoans, Rahm want to be sure it's the government.

According to Obama, a profit takes advantage of the customer. You have to give back to the community. I guess that is why all the food stores move out of the ghetto. They gave too much.

Lol! More bullshit! Was he. Really on jury duty or just another photo op? He is taking so much from us the honest, hardworking, taxpayers to give o the do nothing link card holders and illegals! How many billions for UNO schools? You know the ones being built by the Acevedo crime cartel! Why was in when our lord and savior Jesus was looking for a place with his mother and father he they were told " sorry no room at the inn" but we keep building schools using our tax dollars that should be diverted to police pensions,police hiring, police equipment, etc! Why are we forced to allow this? Where does it state in the screwed up illinois constitution that we have to keep building more schools? Hey rahm any investigative reporters lets say sorry no more room , maybe where you came from go back, we would have trillions on reserve funds, no more free school,health care, free housing free food!

You gotta love how Rahm uses the press to always upscale his image. In the end he is always "fighting for tax payers", "standing up to dishonest crooks", "working hard every day for the children". Plus add in a complaint press that just dresses him up and presto! The people believe he is working for their interests.

In the meantime he hands out a record no bid contracts, charter schools run by insiders get more public money and he is still going to build a 55 million dollar park to honor Maggie Daley.

He doesn't want anyone else but him to take advantage of residents.

He hates competition.

If his jury duty was at the daley center, did his security have to check their weapons with the sheriff s desk in the basement.

Okay, so I'm sure everyone saw rahm on the tube yesterday at jury selection. My question is, how is he tweeting when when cell phones are no longer allowed in the courthouse? Next question is, who was the moron that gave permission to the person who photographed rahm at jury selection . . . with all the other potential jurors!?

Cta finds 2 BILLION yes BILLION to buy new cta cars, but yet they cannot find any money for the hard working coppers/firefighters pensions! they find money for all the social programs, to build more and more schools for children of illegal immigrates! We need that "magic genie" to help us! The truth is there is plenty of money hidden for secret projects! Just have to find the "Pot of Gold" rahm knows where it is!

It seems strange that rahm who worked for barry obama, could help out the rich bankers,and multi-million dollar auto companies with bailouts but they will not help out first responders with pension obligations! We put in our fair share and more,what did the banks and auto companies put in in order to get trillions of our tax dollars? Ahh yes the magic answer huge contributions to political funds! Thats the ticket!

Rahm doesn't give a shit about the middle class of this city.
He only cares about 2 voting blocks: Link card & SSI abusing ghetto dwellers and big business.
The ghetto dwellers were getting ripped off by a tax service called Mo'Money.... gee who could've seen that coming?
So no Rahm is outraged and spouting off.

Is Rahm off his meds like that judge?

Rahm calls upon all the cities pensions, writes letters to banks and investment firms, for all them to ALL get out of any financial backing of gun manufacturers. Sell their stock, cut off their financing.

Meanwhile, the Dept of Homeland Security sends out letters to these same evil companies asking for bid's on new assault weapons which in turn will directly support these same companies.

Net result?

You're pension funds are not allowed to profit resulting from government contracts awarded to the gun manufacturers.

Not only has the city shortchanged us all on their pension contributions to our pension plans. Now the pensions are turned into tools for personal political gains.

Rahm if you are going to boycott gun manufacturers because guns are evil then have CPD stop directly supporting these companies with gun purchases. This would be way more effective then playing around with stocks and bonds of these companies. STOP BUYING THE GUN RAHM! COME ON. Put the cities money where your big mouth is! CPD, turn in your weapons they may get lost or stolen and we won't know where they came from when they are used in a crime.

Yeah, I know. absurd. But if Rahm wants to hurt the gun manufactures and put them out of business don't do it with a half-ass meaningles p-r campaigns. Cut 'em off at the knees by stopping the purchases of the merchandise instead and not the stocks.

Come on big guy, you have no balls to do it.

That's because if anyone is going to take advantage of the residents of the Sanctuary City of Chicago residents it will be the politicians.

Damn it, I am the decider!

The money will come to my office and I will decide how it gets cut up and distributed to the businesses.

Can't wait til the covers are blown off these business/government partnership deals that the mayor is pulling off as he sells off the public assets for a fast buck.

Well, I would not be too quick to slam the mayor on this one. A Channel two investigation showed that 80% of these so called tax preparers were unlicensed, filing incorrect returns, holding the returns as hostage to get more money from people, not qualified etc. These frauds just hang a sign on a vacant store front or on another business and open their doors to fleece the public. Buyer beware. Go to a CPA or use Turbotax

Tax preparers in Chicago are now regulated by the city. While this is a good idea (people need protection from these shady tax offices), there might be an ulterior motive. Tickets of up to $750 can be given for each violation. But I will not bore you with the possible infractions; I looked up the restrictions, and it is very easy for these tax preparation offices to get tickets.
