He seems to have taken full advantage of the opportunity

A man with his pockets turned inside out (Chicago) is trapped in a pillory (unequal representation in the legislature) with a giant lock (reapportionment refusal). Meanwhile, a man in a hat and smoking a cigar (Illinois legislature) walks away holding many of the other man's belongings (anti-Chicago legislation, state income tax, Chicago traction control, and gas tax).
