America's infrastructure is deteriorating, 50 Chicago Schools are closing - Where The F**k is all our tax money going? When is enough, enough?

Oh and looking at it. It seems the argument made for closing the schools is that people with kids are fleeing Chicago so fast that many of the schools are underpopulated.

"District officials said enrollment declines and students shifting to charter schools—public schools run by independent groups—have left 100,000 extra classroom seats in the city. The figures are based on the district’s ideal class size of 30 students; currently, most schools have between 24 and 28 students in each classroom, according to district documents."
