The govt encourages banks to keep foreclosed homes off of the market to keep home prices like these artificially high in order to keep property taxes from cratering to keep all of the worthless govt employees from losing their overpaid worthless jobs

You are so right and the mayor of Romeoville thinks nothing about kids having something to do for free to keep them off the streets. He wants to have Halloween parties for adults and close Safety town for the kids in the neighbor hhod. Time he goes away. The tax payers pay more money for the police and fire department to drive around town and for personal use and then the tax payers of Romeoville get to pay for the new cars. Whata joke. this town is.
