I think Bloomie just out-stupided Barbaras Lee and Boxer and Feinstein all in one swoop. This is dementia. Surely, private jet owners will be clamoring to crowd urine-soaked homeless people out of homeless shelters, won't they? I mean, that's got me really, really concerned.

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.

Yeah, those uber-riche are flying into NYC to get their 16 ounce sodas before retiring to the luxury of a free night on hizzoner.

This is what happens when you have more money than brains. Same affliction Windbag Buffet has.

I hate Bloomberg like any freedom lover does but the point he may be making is that NYC is forced to provide a commodity to whomver demands one.
Of course, when the Gov’t is compelled to give away commodities at no cost to the user, demand goes sky high.

I think it just proves he’s smokin’ something very potent he’s getting from those homeless people. Wants to protect his source.

Are they putting the homeless up at the Waldorf Astoria & Hilton’s? Damn, perhaps I need to sell my house, move to New York & visit the shelters.

There was a 80s joke where Gorbachev announces a new series of 5 year plans to revitalize the Soviet economy. At the end of the first every family would have their own apartment, at the end of the second their own car, at the end of the third their own private plane.
This last raised the question "Why would every family need their own plane?"
Gorby replied "to enable then to live better, Comrade Citizen. Think, a family has their own plane, and they hear that there is meat available in Vladivostok"

I think he needs to get to the nearest ER for treatment of a brain parasite. Hopefully it’s not a painful condition, as he also banned painkillers from being dispensed in NYC ERs (more specifically in NYC city hospitals and with voluntary compliance requested at private NYC hospitals).

So I’m going to get off my private jet and order my chauffeur to drive me to the nearest homeless shelter. Then I’m going to sit in on a hard wooden bench at a table next to some guy who reeks of urine, has a head full of lice, and won’t stop shouting at his invisible demon. Just to get a plate of whatever slop they’re serving. After that I get to crash out on a thin, smelly mattress that’s crawling with bedbugs, in a room full of people who are snoring and farting. That sure sounds like the good life to me!
The people of New York must be really brainless to elect this moron not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES!

Many a pilot has slept on the plan when there were no suitable lounge chairs in the FBO. Been there, done that.

Every day is a totally new surprise to Bloomberg ~ until he pops another cranial artery ~ and falls into a deep, dreamless slumber.

I’m reminded of a picture I took of a Lotus (very expensive car) at the Taco Bell drive-thru.
Point: the rich get rich by saving money.
