Political corruption has been rampant in NY for over 100 years. The same way as Chicago. After the last Federal election, there were many posts on this board about just ignoring the Federal government and going on with people's lives. The people of NY are no different. Many of them don't think that anything that they can do would have an impact on elections.VoiceofReason wrote:When will the people of New York wake up and get rid of the scum politicians that allow this sort of thing to happen?
What kind of people sit back and allow the politicians and liberal media to brainwash them? What kind of people allow the government to make them get a “permit” to exercise their constitutional rights? This is a serious question that I would like someone to explain the answer to me.
I just can’t understand the people of some states.
We have very good friends who are from Brooklyn. He was a bio-chemist and she a teacher. They are very well spoken and very lucid even in their advanced years. They don't think in terms of their Constitutional rights. They vociferously support the Liberal agenda right on down the line. They think that I've lost my mind after moving to Texas and wanting to talk about guns. They are very fiscally conservative.
Remember that the unions are a big part of the world in urban NY and NJ. Most of them are more corrupt than the politicians. In order not to have their heads explode from the futility of their situations, people have simply learned to cope. The politicians and unions have a free hand. While we lived in the area, it was clear that dissidents are targeted.
Go there for a visit. Try to talk politics with the local population. You will not find yourself on friendly ground. Very rural NY and NJ are like another planet by comparison. South Jersey has seriously considered secession.
