George, Rudy and Mike: So Happy Together
"As Rudy Giuliani comes to town to campaign for Mayor Michael Bloomberg, remember that Republicans stick together."
No votes for politicians who close firehouses.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg (R-NY) has a record of closing firehouses and shrinking the Fire Department, even though we all know that in the name of the safety of the city, we need firehouses to remain open.
Only a Republican would close down firehouses and layoff fire fighters in a city like New York.
Keep our firehouses open by voting for anybody but Bloomberg !
"The level of NYC’s debt is rising and representing a growing portion of the assessed value of taxable real property."
William C. Thompson, Jr., the Comptroller for New York City, has released the Fiscal Year 2009 Annual Debt Report.
"New York City has a large and growing debt burden that is threatening to become unaffordable as the City’s economy suffers the impacts of a severe global economic downturn. By any commonly accepted measure, New York City ranks above its peers in the amount of debt shouldered by city residents and the city’s economy."
The budget report also indicated that, "New York City’s debt as a percentage of personal income in FY 2006 was the highest at 14.5 percent."
While City Council uses its plethora of slush funds to funnel taxpayer dollars to shoddy construction companies, the Mayor is playing election year politics with the city budget.
Suzannah B. Troy posted a new video about new reports in the The New York Daily News about the possibilities of city budget corruption and election year budget engineering.
