From the "City of Big Shoulders" to the "City of Big Brother". Perhaps Chicago can learn a few more new tricks from the UK boilerplate.
Here's a great idea how about we put surveillance cameras in the Mayor's and all the aldermen's offices running 24/7 and publicly available? Maybe we could even listen to all meetings and phone calls too? That would probably help to fight crime and make the city a safer place.
"Feeling safe" is obviously more important than actually being safe. If these cameras would keep us safe from cancer, foreclosure, pollution, corruption, and/or losing your job and paying a living wage, etc. - rather than being akin to taking your picture on a rollercoaster at an amusement partk, then yeah. Until they work that one out - no thank you.
