'.....or we shoot the dog, your choice.'
The foul, ugly, degenerate politicians allowed to govern us do this to scare people into granting a tax increase; i.e. “we must cut fire and/or police unless we can raise taxes.” The foul and corrupt politicians do this all the time in the “Democratic Peoples Republic of Kalifornia.” Kalifornians are getting used to them and the threat is losing its impact. The people of New York should organize enough to tell their “Pols” to cut out funding the aliens and stuffing each others pockets.
