I got a lot of help from HUD and FHA when I bought my house. I couldn't have afforded to buy and renovate my home when I did without that program, which is only for first-time buyers. The program also helps housing supply by renovating unfit older buildings into usable housing stock.

So, at least in the US in general and Chicago specifically, gov't is doing things to help first-time buyers.

No! The problem is the idea that you'd need bodyguards to walk through any part of an American city. You know people live in these neighborhoods, right? And we survive our Saturday nights just fine.

The question is bizarre and stinks of casual racism.

Bike lanes and paths are now full of people buzzing by at 25mph or more.

I'm sure even non-Ameticans can tell the difference between an uppercase and lowercase letter L.

Not all libertarian-leaning people are on board with corporatism; IMO freedom is for people, not businesses.

My experience as well. Though I avoid political munis these days.

My closest branch removed theirs a couple months ago. Only drivethrough now.
