Chicago Sun-Times:

chicago is still a better place to live than most cities you will find but like all cities far from perfect. there is always going to be corruption and police issues etc.. and criminals and bad people. I think overall people are decent and make bad decisions. there are however that percentage that are just pure evil.

But the furloughs announced in this article are for non-union employees, representing roughly a 10% pay cut.
