  1. HELL HATH FROZEN OVER……I’m in complete agreement with the What on this…..

    The Judge blocked the State layoffs right? That’s very bad new for the unions!

    When the unions contracts are up the state will say “Everybody is Fired” and “GTFOOH”!

    New York State is in a depression and cannot continue to support this nonsense!

    Nice knowing ya..

    The What

    Someday this war is gonna end..

    Someday the unions are gonna learn…..

  2. “http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/BPDLogin?application=np

    our debt is 12,000,000,000,000 give or take 500 billion.

    debt/GDP ratios are unsustainable.”

    Legion will all due respect, you’re wrong!!

    Our debt is 54 TRILLION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We’re spending over 12% of GNP and the Bond market will killed that in 5.. 4.. 3.. 2… 1..

    We’re in a INFLATIONARY DEPRESSION!!! End of story!!!

    The What

    Someday this war is gonna end..

  3. Bars is the least of it on Fulton What, although I know I have been agitating for one near me for a while. Mostly its just the simple aspects of repaving the sidewalks, planting trees, and most importantly picking up all the trash that used to be strewn around the area. The BID has had made a noticeable improvement to the immediate area around my house by creating a cleaner and more pedestrian friendly Fulton Street and I am grateful for that.

    In re goal post moving, feel free to reference my comments on the asking prices for some of the houses for sale around me recently. I have been the one saying “I can’t believe they are asking that much for that house” etc.

  4. Legion,

    That’s 0.3% of our GDP to maintain the economic health of a major partner in the world economy. Does that sound so rough?

    Also, that same source you pointed to above… that’s a link to the CNBC article with the title “US Exposure to EU Bailout Is Big But Risk Is Limited”

    http://www.cnbc.com/id/37084075

    In other words, $54 billion with little risk. Ya know, the same way China lends us money… they know we’re low risk.

  5. all this talk of fringe. I still have a little of that on top.

    but – isn’t that ‘fringe’ all relative? or edgy or sketchy?
    or whatever word might use. Some may call wherever it is that you live as slum and others would say great beautiful area and wish they could afford it.

  6. Oh Tyburg, so glad you’re here!
