You bet! It's a funny line, LOL.
The city's recovery through the Koch and Rudy administrations coincided with better sanitation of the subway system.
Why hasn't this ever been challenged legally? ...Where are the lawyers on this?
Politicians, bureaucrats and lawyers feed of the same chaos.
The top portion of the below is from another thread but the answer to his question is the same as the answer to yours.
One of the things that has always bothered me the most about DC is the railing against each other by day and then going out for a drink together in the evening.
How can you really believe in something for hours during the day and then put those strong beliefs away in the evening? I have had a few try to explain this to me and condescendingly at that, that this is politics and Im just some dumb skirt, pat me on the head and Ill go to my sewing. 2 -- WHAT A DIFFERENCE CHARACTER MAKES Black Tie Black Eye
Here's how and why. President Bush is aware of it and leads a rational class act from the top down.
Issue 101 -- Chaos House of Cards How is it that people and society in general have prospered and increased their well being for decades yet the politicians and bureaucrats say we must have another 3,000 laws and regulations each year on top of the 100,000+ laws already on the books... That without them people and society face "disaster". People and society have done quite well without next year's 3,000 new federal laws and regulations. Why all of a sudden can people and society not continue to do quite well without them? The fact is, they'd be better off without 99% of them. So who really benefits from 3,000 new laws and regulations each year? -- not to mention state laws and regulations. Politicians and bureaucrats. They create boogieman problems and with a complicit media towing their boogieman problems cast a net of false fear and unwarranted despair in people. Quite literally, they create problems where none exist. They're sick in that they chose to frighten people and foist false despair on them and do that to collect their unearned paychecks. Their job security is predicated on deceiving as many people as possible. It cost more than just two trillion dollars a year to fund government abuse. That abuse hinders people's development, especially children being indoctrinated rather than educated, harms the economy and is largely responsible for causing false booms and reality-adjusting bust cycles in markets. Flushing that money down the toilet -- save for military defense spending -- would be better for individuals, their families and society. That's a different way of saying, can't we just pay congress to stay home and not leave their houses. Surely we'd be better off. Politicians and bureaucrats are sick and need your help. Fully integrated honesty is key. That we have the government we have -- delivered by both Democrats and Republicans -- that has gone so far off course from the government the founders created, is a product of irrationality and dishonesty. Changing the laws via the system is almost completely useless. Politicians create dozens of unconstitutional laws before even considering repealing just one unconstitutional law. That is not a system -- it's a quagmire of deception, irrationality, fraud and abuse. Politics is not the solution -- politics is the problem. Who are the parasites? Step one for helping politicians and bureaucrats: Step two: Demand that they address Issue 101. Do the same with the media. Step three: Ostracize government officials that fail to honestly address Issue 101. Do the same with the media. Step four: Champion science and business communities -- often under relentless attack by the government. For they create jobs, necessities, luxuries and ever greater advancements that support human life, family and society -- natural order. |
How can you really believe in something for hours during the day and then put those strong beliefs away in the evening?
Their job security is predicated on making it appear that they are solving problems. Since they can't or don't dare touch on the root cause of 99% of the problems it demonstrates that they don't really believe their jobs are to actually solve real problems. Whether either side of the aisle or individual is right or wrong on any given issue is mostly inconsequential.
The plain fact is, at the root of the problem, with a very few exceptions, they're all wrong.

The New-era Trend and
How Much Does Character Count?
Shut that deli down. Research shows obesity is worse than smoking.
Hmmm. Looks like the council made their choice for them. Now all of the unemployed restaurant workers can collect welfare in good health.
What a crock! These control freaks are too much. Glad I don't live there.
Call me a rebel, but now it looks like I'll have to take up smoking too. What's the point of turning seventy if you can't take up all the bad habits that are going to kill you by the time you turn 100?
Good one!
Oh Yeah!!
They are going to make $13 an hour which assuming they work a full 40 Hours a week comes to only $27,000 a year. Throw in fedral, state and city income taxes that will be ~$17,000 net. Considering a cheap studio apartment in NYC goes for about $1500 a month\$18000 a year if they don't have a second job they are going to have to take bribes just to survive.
