Claiming his place as the 109th mayor of New York City, Bill de Blasio delivered an inaugural address on Wednesday that focused on the issue of inequality, promising that the attention he gave to the subject when he was running for office was not merely campaign rhetoric.
Outside City Hall, in front of an audience that included members of his family, luminaries like Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton and hundreds of ordinary New Yorkers, Mayor de Blasio spoke of the city’s history of embracing liberal causes, and he laid out a mayoralty that emphasized social and economic justice.
“We are called to put an end to economic and social inequalities that threaten to unravel the city we love,” he said. “And so today, we commit to a new progressive direction in New York. And that same progressive impulse has written our city’s history. It’s in our DNA.”

Libtards never realize that they are the cause of increasing economic inequality. As long as the government keeps expanding the money supply to finance budget deficits,there is always going to be increasing economic inequality. It is the libtard programs that lead to more government spending and larger budget deficits. So, the way to start decreasing economic inequality is to put an end to libtard programs.
New Yorkers voted for Communism, now they are gonna have it..once was such a beautiful state, people from all over the world come to see its greatness, now its gonna be another Venezuela

Whats with these marxist scumbags constantly changing identities?
They have to fund the wall somehow.
Just remember... People with money and lot’s of disposable income can always afford to leave.
Perhaps Orlando Florida could become the new financial center of the country?
Interesting...his dad had PTSD and freaked out...took Mom’s last name....
My prediction is by the end of DeBlazio’s term:
1. Crime will be way up
2. The balanced budget will turn into a huge deficit
3. White flight
4. Higher taxes...maybe even attempted property seizures
5. Income inequity will be a lot worse than it is now
This should be fun to watch...as long as you don’t live there.
Indeed. Precisely stated.
And true.
Good riddance, NYC. Upstate will feel no pain to watch you burn.
They never WILL learn that envy is corrosive, will they?
Now if he were to ask how well the poorest of the poor were faring, then it’s likely pretty good news. If you don’t count those who are willfully living like dogs, you will be looking at something which most of the rest of the world classes as comfortable. But good news is of no use in prodding a people to go Forward(tm).
Which is why it will be the middle class working stiffs who end up getting hammered for this. When a socialist talks about "income inequality" they mean the elimination of the middle class, which is well under way in this country.

Difficult choice!
Whoo-hoo bring that big bad socialism on baby!
they probably didn’t show up because you know, the other guy was probably just as bad, or maybe he was Mormon, or maybe he wasn’t really hard core conservative or maybe he was a rino...you know all the important reasons NOT to vote......
