Wow, this has got “misappropriation of funds” written all over it.

“This is a neighbors-helping-neighbors effort,” state Labor Commissioner Peter Rivera said

I have to call Bull$hit on that. This is the nanny state acting like your daddy. Creating “jobs”. Some of which will turn into a career at union defined wages and benefits. Much like a TSA job 11 years ago. Neighbors-helping-neighbors is when I or some guy like me helps the guy next door or down the road repair his property without expectation of pay or compensation.

Does Sandy cleanup really require 2,500 man-years in low-skill labor?

Replay of the Deepwater Horizon oil cleanup. ACORN will provide the “workers” and get their cut off the top.

The damage from Sandy in every other area is probably 80% completd and NY is just starting?? At OBX this weekend and found it in full swing. Many private contracters completing storm damage jobs. Highway 12 on Hattras Island area under repair but open to 4x4 traffic. Ferrys are doing a good job. People are in good spirits - lookin’ good! - come on down!!

Didn’t FDR “revive” our nation’s economy the same way?

N.Y. to Hire 5,000 Temp Workers
Doesn't NY already pay tens of thousands of people who do nothing all day (permanently) - i.e. - the scumbag welfare crowd?

Why not just put the able bodied slackers to work that are already getting a free ride from Uncle Sugar?

I guess maybe it’s too much to ask from the reparation crowd.

You mean someone is going to have to work for their largesse? How demeaning!! Why work when you can get it without working?

Wait until they realize that they would get more money on unemployment insurance than working at these clean up jobs.
