Alden Loury--Property Tax Politics

Ben’s beloved Bulls trade for a clubhouse preacher who asks reporters if they fornicated before marriage. He also has bad knees. Ben riffs. Alden Loury talks property tax and politics—or the politics of property tax. What prompted voters to oust Assessor Fritz Kaegi? Hint—rising property taxes.

Alden is an editor for WBEZ and Sun-Times columnist.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
