The Biggest Jerk in Chicagoland

Anticapitalists and proletariat activists couldn't ask for a much more deserving protest target than this. This cheery gent is campaigning to close a public library in Oak Brook because POOR PEOPLE USE IT. He also previously blocked the permit for a senior home for the same reason. Here's a few quotables for you:

"I don't want to live next to poor people. I don't want poor people in my town"

"I don't care that you guys miss the librarian, and she was nice, and she helped you find books;"

"This is the real world and the lesson, you folks who brought your kids here, is if you want something, pay for it…"

(Some of those comments were directed at an 11 year old girl who testified against firing all of the librarians)
