if management wanted to do something for their companies they would work for sensible money and return profits to shareholders. THey should stop looting the companies that employ them. They’d stop sitting on each others boards handing giving their brethren bigger and bigger payouts. And if they cared about USA they’d would pay a bigger share if their income in taxes.
And I’m in a good mood today too.
Well, don’t forget he’s campaigning. He’ll give us bad news but try to sound like Everyman. In the meantime you can expect the further loss of essential services, like about 16 firehouses.

On the matter of rent hikes Bloomberg says that landlord’s costs are going down. Ummm, where??? Water, taxes??? Doesn’t one side of his mouth know what the other is speaking???

If the Unions really wanted to do something for their workers, they would bring down their extortion prices, especially in this economy, and offer incentives to whatever’s left of the construction business. But that’s like asking the mafia not to act so entitled. This is an old school organization, and will go extinct in this economic climate.
