Plan & Prepare
1. Objectives
• Analyze multiple sources to understand the real costs of expanding O'Hare
airport
• Identify normative economics in the sources
• Evaluate differing points of view on airport expansion
2. Comment on your experience as travelers at airports. What parts of the
experience went smoothly? What parts did not? After the discussion, point out that
they took the perspective of a consumer using airport services. As you read the
sources here, you should keep your own perspective in mind but also identify the
perspective of the sources.
3. Compare and contrast the different viewpoints on O'Hare expansion as you read
the sources.
A. What benefits are identified in the online report? (efficiency of airport; jobs
and money pumped into local economy; larger capacity for 'Hare) In your
opinion, are those benefits convincing? Why or why not? (Answers will vary;
encourage students to back up opinions with data.)
B. What is the point of the cartoon? (Answers will vary, but probably will note
that while the trains and airplanes is accepted, the noise of protest is not.)
C. What perspective does AReCo bring to the debate? (They represent the
concerns of people who live near the airport. They care less about efficiency
and more about safety and quality-of-life issues.)
