Pittsburgh's Parking Privateers: They're Back!

We have observed a noticeable increase in visits to Infinonymous by parking privateers -- the law firms, local greasers, financiers and the like that pursued the Not-So-Great InsolvenCity Parking Garage Sale -- since mid-March.

The inference seems so strong a child could see it.

(Lesson for the small-time local cream-skimmers: Our readers from Chicago never took a break, not even during the holidays; that level of thoroughness is likely related to the size of eventual paydays.)

The way things are going, if Pittsburgh is ever going to get a taste of milk again its going to have to run the risk of somebody getting a little creme. Would you rather it be infrastructure skimmers or gas drilling skimmers? There are only so many hustles out there worth billions -- and I've yet to hear of any parking czars poisoning anyone's air or water, or of any garages exploding.

And isn't Chicago basically the only thing keeping Sarah Palin and Haley Barbour bay?

I care! Lukie is surrounded by snakes in the grass and he needs to be watched to keep his sneaky ass honest. Keep up the behind the scenes intel, the P-G sure is asleep when it comes to city issues.

And if I thought regular city residents would get any milk out of the parking deal, I might be for it. As near as I can tell, the parking deal with just enough money to keep the problems buried for long enough to get our current officials to retirement/the next job.
