So now all the people in Shoemaker Loft who used to have nice open parking (at least when there weren't rush hour lane restrictions)? Now they're all hosed. A bunch just cropped up on Monticello Avenue just north of Irving. I mean, really? C'mon. It's only a matter of time before they start lining the residential streets with 'em. And if they do, who's to stop 'em? It's out of the hands of the political process now.
Oh, and here's the most delicious part: This LAZ company is a subsidiary of JP Morgan. They can't get by without TARP money, but they can pony up a billion dollars to buy a bunch of parking meters. The American taxpayer has subsidized the selling out of Chicago's streets. Awesome.

 Sounds like you can't take the stress, or cost of living, of Chicago. Maybe you should move back up to the UP of Michigan, or downstate Il..... 
The 'city life' can reck havoc on a country boy......

Why you getting hostile?.....  I'm simply pointing out the fact, that you obviously can't handle the stress or cost of living of the big city life. I think the Up of Michigan, or downstate Il. is more to your suiting.
Atleast there you won't get throw in jail for vandalizing parking meters. It's nothing to be ashamed about, not everyone is cut out for the big city life. Think about all that fishing and hunting you can do when you go back to the UP of Michigan!!....  |

Obviously you yourself cannot handle the big city life otherwise you would not be living in Pittsburgh. 
Before you accuse... take a look at yourself... |
