Say a prayer for New York City
Gotham’s in trouble. Not just because it’s suffering under the weight of crushing woes — soaring violence, out-of-control homelessness, a broken economy, a broke City Hall. And a population that can’t flee fast enough.
But also because none of the
would-be saviors running for mayor is offering any meaningful plan to turn things around. And the primary, where the election is likely to be decided, is now less than six months away.
As
Bob McManus noted last week, none of the candidates has yet to articulate any sound ideas to tackle the city’s huge problems or even manage its core functions more effectively and efficiently, even as tax revenue is expected to fall billions below planned spending levels for the foreseeable future. Instead, candidates are more interested in reversing “inequities” and addressing racial “imbalances.”
