Chicago is an exciting city at the south end of Lake Michigan. The city has about 3 million inhabitants, and the Chicago metropolitan area has 9.7 million people. Chicago has many 
interesting things in it, and it has a great deal going for it.
Unfortunately Chicago is also famous for rampant dishonesty and machine politics. Corruption among politicians is almost normal and expected there. It was the headquarters for Al Capone and later for Sam Giancana.
Today’s New York Times has an excellent article on the subject: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/14/us/14corrupt.html
Wikipedia even has an entire, rather long, article devoted corruption and lawlessness in the city. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organized_crime_in_Chicago
