You should do some basic research before wasting people's time. Look through a building's Financials to see how much fixed cost there is. By fixed, I mean that they only go up. And the city only wants more. And the landlord can't raise enough to keep up. Socialism doesn't work and you guys refuse to look at the reality.
@leftyvegan@emmma_camp_@WSJFreeEx "Repairs" are not just painting walls. The big repairs are the ones you don't see "regularly" and they cost 5 to 6 digit per unit depending on what the issue is (elevator, mold, roof, etc.)
@jaymart222 The plan is that the government will take over and hire all the friends and family for the work. Tax payers pay twice: the building renovation and the rent.
Had it not been for Boris Johnson and Victoria Nuland -- who personally forced Zelensky to reject the deal Ukraine and Russia were about to sign in Istanbul in 2022 -- this horrific war that has killed more than a million and consumed much of Ukraine would have been long over.
.@KathyHochul and @ZohranKMamdani spent days defending Oscar Belgal, the criminal who pulled a machete on neighbors, robbed people at gunpoint, and was arrested selling fentanyl, cocaine, and heroin.
New York kept releasing him.
When the feds moved to take him off the streets, these politicians treated the agents like the criminals.
They called Belgal a “New Yorker” and a “good father”. They ignored the people he robbed, the neighbors he terrorized, and the drugs he was pushing.
This is not compassion. It’s a political class that sides with a criminals over the citizens they’re supposed to protect and calls law enforcement the problem when they do their job.
It’s also a disservice to the good, hard-working, law-abiding immigrants they claim to be protecting.
They failed the basic duty.
Protect the people who live here. Stop shielding the ones who prey on them.
Remember this on November 3rd.
@BrooklynBus This doesn't need to be a density discussion. If you have a senior citizen or anyone disabled at home, you will need a car. Period. The DOT and some city officials hate families so much that they try to do away the last thing that make their lives functional.
@AJManaseer Their policies are making it more and more expensive and inconvenient for families. They want to drive the ordinary families out, so that NYC will become an utopia of singles and rich families.
