“It’s deeply disappointing and terribly disturbing that the mayor will use his powers to try to beat people who disagree with him into oblivion,” said Steve Mintz, the lawyer representing [Taxi Club Management CEO Gene] Freidman.

Abusing the power of his government office to punish those who disagre with him?

Who the heck does Bloomberg think he is?

100% Fact: Anytime to give another person power over you, you are placing yourself at risk for abuse.

Nobody has ever successively refuted Lord Acton’s words: “Power Corrupts and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely”.

Because our government indoctrination centers in K-12 have dumb downed the brilliance of the Founders we have generations who do not realize how corrupt all our government institutions are and why the Founders insisted on a very small government with severe constraints placed on it by the Constitution.
