The devil is in the details. Cook County is clearly the kind of place where
government support of the project is essential (and can't be completed fast
enough for me). Annandale's situation described in the strib article is
quite different. We want government to do what can't/won't happen otherwise
through the public sector, and we want it to spend wisely. The idea behind
this bill is sound. I wish I had more faith that the execution of the plan
will be, too.
