    1. Would rather use $1B in public bonds to clean up and redevelop the closing NIPSCO plant in Michigan City; redevelop the closing state prison in Michigan City; and further improve the South Shore Line.

      The lakeshore between Burns Harbor and the Michigan State Line has an incredible amount of potential, but state lawmakers would rather spend money chasing the Bears to score points against Illinois or whatever.

    2. Northern Indiana is being played by the Bears. I would encourage the folks in Hammond to start talking about pulling some or all their chips off the table. I really don’t think is a good investment for the state. My hunch is the Bears are going to ultimately go to Arlington Heights, where they’ve made a HUGE land acquisition investment.
