Privatizing city assets has been a hot topic over the last year and a half here in the city, especially given the debacle that was the parking meter hand-off. But what about an agency like the CTA?

In this week's Chicago Reader, Robert Loerzel explores, in depth, the city's previous stint of privatized public transit. It's an engrossing, extensive read so get comfortable.
