[pipedreams]

What a deal.

"The foundation behind the planned Obama Presidential Center in Chicago has a tentative agreement with the city to pay just $10 to use 19.3 acres of city park space for 99 years, according to a report. "

"Jackson Park Watch co-founder Margaret Schmid said, “The idea of leasing invaluable, irreplaceable public parkland to a private entity for $10 for 99 years is astounding in this era when public lands and natural resources are under attack in so many places.  Besides, Chicago’s finances are extremely precarious.  Yes, this is symbolic, but symbolism is significant.”"

It's Chicago.  Marie Antoinette (Madame Déficit ) reputedly, said it best.  For the peasants that have no bread, "Let them eat cake!"

I'm sure it will be made mandatory for school kids.
