How many of those 8 million New Yorkers who pay taxes to support that park benefit from it nearly as much as it does the holders of real estate adjoining Central Park? Your portrayal of the park at night as a safe place to be is an obvious sham.

No, you're just another brainwashed socialist teacher, incapable of learning (just like Eska). You only answer the parts of my arguments that you can use and accused me of being against parks as if I don't want space for Nature. You paint yourself a subjective strawman for the purpose and won't read the reviews. You have no idea how real estate scams using public money work, because for now, you think that they benefit you. When they start to close Yellowstone and Yosemite against you, maybe you'll start to figure it out (that's already starting BTW).

I never said the park was a safe place at night - I have been there at night for events. Would I go out and walk in it alone at night? Of course not. And your view -- that Central Park should be privatized -- shows how extreme and how out of touch you are on this issue, IMO. Your position is a total sham.

And, Carry, I am sorry for saying you are a total sham -- because you in fact believe what you believe. Fine.

But I would never buy your book. And I certainly won't read it.

Because if you can't figure out that public green space is necessary to be set aside on a tiny island running only 5 miles north and south, and 2 miles east and west at its widest point, inhabited by more than 8 millioni people, living on top of each other, then, IMO, you are not in the GOP, not on the right, not even on the extreme right -- you are simply on another planet. That's fine. Have fun!
