“I’d like to say very bluntly our mission is to redistribute wealth,” the mayor said. “A lot of people bristle at that phrase. That is, in fact, the phrase we need to use.”The purpose of the “redistribution of wealth” is supposedly to fix the City’s schools. Those schools currently spend about $28,000 per year per student on K-12 education, which is well more than double the national average. As usual, de Blasio takes no responsibility for the failure of New York City schools to achieve even near-average results for almost triple the cost elsewhere in the country, and just demands more and more and yet more money.

“Don't even think about coming here right now. Almost all of the best things are closed, by order of our political masters. The term “ghost town” is a fair description.”
Third world hell-hole is a better description.
It is going to get worse if they don't build a wall to prevent people from fleeing.

Asbury Park was spening 36K per Student
They renamed Bangs Elementary to Barack Hussein Obama Elementary, the staff and students were in tears, this would raise the school and make it better give hope to students to do better, the blah blah blah
Before the name change only 14% of the students could read, today after the name change less then 7% can read. So much for that hope.
36K per student and only 7% can read?
Failure factories

I love NYC at Christmas time, taking customers out to lunch or dinner in the 2 weeks leading up to (usually) the 23rd every year. I probably expense 5K in that time frame every year but not this year. I fault NYC for alot of things, especially the damn politicians they keep putting in office but man, there is not a penny of assistance for the restaurant industry in this damn bill! I'd like to see the people there get in Schmucky's face (and the rest of them) and put some damn pressure to get this bill changed.
If they don't well then they are getting what they voted for.

They criticize Trump as a braggart but Cuomo is as much a braggart or more than Trump.
To: nascarnation
This time it's Democrats Cuomo and DeBlasio telling NYC to drop dead, and they're pulling the trigger!
And guess what? The media and CDC bureaucrats keep it quiet, but the States with the three worst deaths per 100,000 are NYC, New Jersey and Massachusetts. Three of the harshest lockdown jurisdictions. (OK New York State isn't in that elite class but Benito Cuomo is making upstate suffer for NYC's sins.)
So, where is Dr. Faustus' damn "science" that the lockdowns are effective at preventing spread of the disease???

Those of us in Upstate New York are praying they secede.
