Another great “teach-in” at Occupy Chicago. (sarc.) Northwestern University professor Mary Pattillo leads a discussion on housing in the U.S. and the government seizing all housing becoming a reality. For those of you wasting your money on a Northwestern degree for your kid, now might be a good time to tell them to read some…
