"It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage, than the creation of a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institutions and merely lukewarm defenders in those who would gain by the new ones." Machiavelli
Thank You, Poor People and Tax PayersBy DIA, Section News
I don't live in the neighborhoods that were overassessed in Albany. I would just like to take this time to do what none of my elected officials have done and say, "Thank You!" to those people. By failing to help elect leaders who care about you and see you as nothing more than ways to make themselves richer, you are paying higher taxes than me. I appreciate you subsidizing my better lifestyle. Luckily the politicians that I voted against look out for me because I make more money then they do. Yippee!! I may not always feel like a winner on Election day but the other 364 days of the year I get to sit back and enjoy being subsidized. Shit, I'll probably make money off of the convention center project. Thanks for paying for that to. Perhaps you can get one of the coveted jobs cleaning the hotel rooms there. And now for the eloquent Mayor Jennings on how he is confident the system is working because poor people are being fucked over for the rich people's benefit.
"I have confidence in the process. I have confidence there are no significant problems," he said. "The board uses their judgment. That's why they exist. I am comfortable with where it is. It depends on the sales. The sales drive the assessment."Its almost like some sort of poetry isn't it? Ode to Confidence and Comfort. Thanks again.
