    I read an article in Time magazine a couple of years ago about Stateway Gardens(projects)in Chicago.It was about the last building in that project before they tore it down.Granted there were generations of families that lived in Stateway.One guy had lived there since 1958 when they 1st opened the place.I'll say most of the people in the projects are'nt trouble makers anyways.It just seems that way because they're being eeked out by the young men in those bad,bad neighborhoods.Saying it nicely.

    Were the buildings poorly maintained, yes. Do the people in the projects deserve better, yes. How about work programs and paid internships for the people trying to better themselves instead of having them have no choice then to resort to gangs and dealing? I wouldn't be able to afford to live in the city. Cook county is too damn expensive, and the politicians are all crooks. They never use the money for what its ment for. That's why so many people are leaving Illinois in general.
