Noooooooo, say it ain’t so!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have 3rd world despots and their handpicked representatives, from some of the most 3rd world locations on the planet, where they can do whatever they want, whenever they want. What difference does it make if it takes place in Manhattan or anyplace else in the world.
They get some staff member, also from the same 3rd world sh*tholes, living a decent life in NYC. If he/she wants to maintain that life, instead of having to wash their clothes in the nearby river, what are their choices?
They are no different than any other power hungry person that has no problem abusing that power.
HMMMmmm...
