New York money woes to bring spending cuts - CNN.com
Hey, they got rid of the Evil Republican Rudy G in NYC and that nasty 3-term Republican Pataki. Went through huge stock market downturns in 2K and 9-11, but the finanaces didn't tank then.
Now we know that Spitzer was a financial genius, I'm sure those $4K an hour hookers were real bargains, but somehow the state and city finances don't seem to be doing very well.
Ah yes, shades of Jimmy Carter and a lot of the NYC 70's and early 80's "disaster Mayors" ... Koch, Dinkins, etc. One thing I'm sure of, it is NEVER the Democrats fault. They just aren't big on that "Responsibility thing".
The problem with Democrat "change" is that if one actually considers what they are saying, it is EASY to "believe in", in fact, there is very little that their policies possibly COULD create other than financial disaster. They have done it over and over and over--but I guess nearly 30 years of pretty much solid economic good was all that we could handle. Time to see what REAL recession if not depression looks like--the kind with MANY quarters of lower GDP, high inflation, high unemployment ... not low to mid single digits. Nice big juicy double digits 10%+ unemployed, 15%+ inflation, maybe even 10%+ declines in GDP. Gas lines, maybe even food lines. THOSE are the kinds of "changes" that Democrats EXCEL at!
I guess the official MSM and easily led sheep position is "bring it on".
