to those more knowledgeable about NYC politics, how the hell did Bloomberg end up mayor in the first place?

:russ:If I worked for a private health insurance company and made a good salary, I would do everything in my power to stop this plan. I don’t trust the government to properly compensate people after they get laid off.
The only problem with doing everything you could to stop this plan is if you're not well off, you yourself may have high medical bills and family with high medical bills now or in the future. all it takes is one bad health scare and you could end up bankrupt. In addition, like many jobs, a lot of people are in those fields only for the benefits/fear of losing decent benefits if they choose a different line of work or the time it would take to become permanent and not have any health insurance. that would no longer be the case with M4A. people really do not understand how free you would be with M4A vs our current setup.

didnt we know this? the leadership ballers always on that nonsense. the real people knows whats up.
I didn’t expect the people to stand up against them like that. However i saw yesterday online that members of the IBEW electricians union have been going hard against their union’s endorsement of Biden. Good to see the people letting their voice be heard.

Lol did the leaders really put out a statement & the actual union workers don't even agree with it?
same thing happened when that democrat group (working families party) took a vote then hid the vote and we found out it was the leaders who went for warren over sanders. yet they pushed a narrative that the entire group voted and the votes supposed showed warren beat out bernie. we later found out from members that was not the case. it was leadership pushing that narrative.

Coattails of Rudy Giuliani who was a trash person but “cleaned up” New York combined with spending 74 million dollars. He spent roughly 75 million dollars on every election campaign. What he is doing nationally is the embodiment of that. He gives favors to the various interest groups that can then speak on his behalf and rally votes. He basically pays them off on one way or another. His wealth grew exponentially while he was mayor as well from like 10 billion to nearly 60. He is the 14 richest person in the country.
