Straighten Up and Fly Right

Why in the world is America wasting so much time and money on Donald Trump? The man who raised the national debt of the United States by $7.8 trillion while in office? God alone only knows what he paid himself and his family out of that debt. When he lived in New York, everybody knew that he was a liar, a cheat, a misogynist, and a despicable human being. Everybody who ever worked for him was robbed by him. A girl who was raped by him was told if she got pregnant she should get an abortion. This is a man whom everybody knew and has known forever, who has absolutely no redeeming feature as a human being. What is the matter with the people of this country? Who wants to be represented by such a reprehensible person? Is this the way Americans want the world to see us?

This has nothing to do with Republican or Democrat – right or left – this has to do with a dictator who wants to take over the country, reduce the taxes on the rich, and take away from the middle-class and the lower-class every benefit: health, education, reconstruction, and international alliances that help keep the country safe and secure. He will increase taxes on the middle and lower classes. He will deprive women of their right. He will deprive people of their vote. He would open the doorway for Putin to take over the United States. He would give up our alliances with the other nations of the world that keep us safe, and instead would enable Putin to accomplish his goal of destroying the United States. 

Do not forget: America went to war to fight World War II against Hitler. Hitler had been elected to office by the German people. Does America want to repeat history? To give up our democracy to a vile, despicable, self-avowed dictator? Is that what you, the people of America, want for your future?

The City is Dying

New York City, Manhattan, is being totally destroyed as a livable city.

The building contractors are busy tearing down old and beautiful buildings in order to build more and more towers filled with empty spaces.

These oversized, tall buildings are basically architecturally faulted. The first one was built by Viñoly on Park Ave, 432 Park Avenue. He himself claimed that it was a failed building, and all the other tall buildings have followed suit. They sway in the wind, they creak, the pipes break, and the elevators don’t work in a timely fashion.

Unreasonable and unlikely to happen, the best thing that can be done to reclaim these buildings is to lop off the top 20-40 floors. The only people benefiting from these tall buildings are the contractors who make money off of more rentable/sellable property on smaller bases. Perhaps there should be an air tax, but it would be even better to totally ban buildings over a certain height altogether.

The streets are being darkened. The sky is being obliterated. The sun can barely penetrate the shaded corridors.

The stores are empty, restaurants are surviving, and yet, the rents continue to rise.

It’s hard to know where this massive destruction ends.

It is beyond comprehension that so many spaces are, at present, left vacant one building after another. And yet, the builders go on tearing down old buildings and replacing them with bland, unoccupied new ones. Somebody is making money off taxpayers!

During the Covid pandemic, many corporations and staffs moved to cheaper areas of the country as they realized they could work productively on Zoom. Offices seem to have become largely obsolete in the city. There seems to be no recognition of the fact that Manhattan does not need more office spaces, and yet there seems to be more and more of those as well. What Manhattan needs are more affordable living spaces so that the people who work in Manhattan can afford to live in Manhattan.

The rents must be forced down for commercial space for businesses like shops, restaurants and boutiques to bring the city back to life.

This has to happen immediately. Today. Not tomorrow, not the next day, not next year. Today. Otherwise New York City will die.

Rents are too high and should be forced down. Neither the city nor the federal government should afford tax rebates for retail owners who leave their spaces empty or unoccupied. If the rents came down, it might be possible for small businesses still to function as destinations and specialty stores. Another possibility is to take the spaces of the empty stores and turn them into some kind of sleeping facilities for the enormous number of migrants flooding the cities. The empty spaces in New York City, that probably will never again be occupied by office spaces, could be turned into midtown lofts – younger generations today prefer loft space to apartment space.

The other thing that the city has to do is to force every contractor who builds a new building to build parking spaces into their structures – several floors of parking space. The charge for these spaces should be the same for parking on the street, and the money should be collected by the city as it is for street parking. This is what is happening in cities like Paris.

It’s time that the real estate business in New York shares some responsibility for the problems that they’ve created in the city. Young people, artists, artisans, teachers, police officers, almost anybody who works in the city cannot afford to live here. This alone would be the sign of a dying city. Your workers, your young people, your talented people, your artists, can no longer afford to live in the city in which they work, nor can members of the police force who are supposed to protect the city – they too cannot live in the city, nor can they send their children to school in the city. The city has created an entire workforce with no skin in the game; no relationship to the city except to come in, spend their hours, and go home.

With the largest police force in the nation, it is impossible to find a police officer on any street in New York except those who direct traffic. No wonder Donald Trump could go out onto Fifth Avenue, shoot somebody, and not be apprehended – there’s nobody to arrest him.

America Beware

What is the matter with this country?

Do you people not understand the difference between right and wrong? When Jamie Dimon CEO of Chase Bank comes out and says “don’t write off Trump, he’s right about something”. That is NOT the issue. Hitler built roads and bridges and sent 6 million people to their death because he hated Jews, Chinese, Blacks… and anyone who is not white skinned, blue eyed, or aryan. Trump is the same as Hitler. He is a dictator. Yes, he may lower taxes for the rich. But as president he also increased the debt by $27 Trillion of dollars by the end of his term. “The national debt rose by almost $7.8 trillion during Trump’s time in office. That’s nearly twice as much as what Americans owe on student loans, car loans, credit cards and every other type of debt other than mortgages, combined, according to data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York”. During all of this his family put millions of dollars in their own pockets. These are facts not fiction. Maybe he has a couple of good ideas but that isn’t the issue. The man is a corrupt liar, a misogynist, a despicable and vial creature. Is that what America wants to have? A despicable Dictator? Is that what America has become, just an order to lower taxes, to deprive people of health care, education, welfare, of equal rights under the law. Does America want to have a Putin, a Hitler, a Mussolini, a Stalin. Any of who by the way may or may not be as bad as Trump. 

This has nothing to do with the differences of Republicans, Democrats, right or left, Conservative or Liberal. Those are all valid opinions that can be discussed, argued and fought over by Republicans and Democrats. The Republican party has become a cult, the party of Trump, it is no longer an independent party. He has bought, bribed and terrified the individual members of this Republican party. Kiss the ring or you may be assassinated, threatened or defamed. He stands against immigration. However, his grandfather was a whore master in Germany and came to this country as an immigrant investing his ill gotten gains into real estate. Trump himself was financed and refinanced by his corrupt father. Aside from anything else he is far from a self made man. Trump is a vial despicable disgusting subhuman being. Is this who America wants as their president? Presented to the world, so that America can be isolated, insulated and rotten to the core. Represented by a reprehensible person. If America has any values left, this man should not, must not and cannot be a nominated for the presidency to represent The United States to the world. Americans stand up and fight to preserve your failing democracy before you sleep walk into a corrupt dictatorship. 

Achtung

It’s easy to focus on Trump because he’s a circus barker and he knows how to get the troops into his tent.

He’s managed to divide the country between Republicans and Democrats, between religious fanatics and people of normal belief.

A man of no moral compass has managed to create a world around him of no moral compass, and he has encouraged violence across the United State.

He has also managed to create a Republican party of Senators and others running for the Presidency who are equally as despicable as he is.


Somehow this country has managed to invent a new Republican party made up of Senators whose sole aim is the destruction of the democracy .

These Senators are being elected , with no term limits.

They can sit there for their entire lives and get paid for their entire lives.

There are several very important constitutional changes that should be attended to.

Term limits for all elected officials. An independent, non-political, character assessment must be required before someone can be allowed to run for office.

Currently there is no provision in the Constitution requiring a character and background check for anyone running for office.

Because any change in election policy must come on a legislative level, this blind spot in the qualification procedure may likely remain for some time.

The Founding Fathers never dreamt that crooks and criminals would be elected to the highest office in the United States.

The Garden of Eden

It is perfectly disgusting that New York City continues to act as a garbage can. There should be no live garbage anywhere, and certainly not on the streets. A photograph was taken the other day of fifteen rats on a disgusting pile of garbage emanating from Palace Restaurant on East 57th Street, Dunkin’ Donuts, and Blank Street Coffee. The other day, a photograph of the rats outside of Dunkin’ Donuts was taken into the manager of Dunkin’ Donuts. The manager thanked the guy and gave him a box of donuts. The rats are still there, the garbage is still there. Why does not the Mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, run a real campaign to eliminate all organic food matter from the garbage? There is no reason in the world that every enterprise, and certainly food centers, should not be composted. There are garbage bags today which can be filled with live garbage, placed in a bin, and they will decompose and turn into compost. If an individual enterprise has more to compost than it can handle, why should there not be bins on the street from which the city can pick up the compost and use it to feed the trees, the grass, the parks… This is not the most complicated process to organize. It would turn New York City from being a garbage can, a disgusting city to walk through day or night into a pleasant and updated city. Come on, Mayor Adams, get with the program.

Justice For All

The American democracy under which we have lived and prospered for the last 245 years is on the brink of destruction.

Anyone who lived through World War II must recognize the similarity of those forces, of those individuals, who like Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin, were dedicated to creating their own autocracies and to the destruction of their own democracy and the world as we knew it.

Their followers, too, were Aryans and Antisemites who were totally responsible for the murder of 6 million Jews and many others besides. Along with the Japanese on the other side of the world, seeking their own world domination, were totally responsible for World War II. Those forces have grown, misinformation has spread, and war criminals, such as Putin, have been aided and abetted in their dedication to the destruction of our nation.

Perhaps the most essential feature of their destructiveness and perhaps the most long lasting effect of Trump’s desire to destroy this country, will be the denigration of education, the introduction of religion into the educational system of the schools, the judicial system throughout the country, and finally the destruction of the Supreme Court.

He and some of his predecessors cynically stacked the Supreme Court for their perceived possible benefit.

Trump is not the only responsible party for the destruction of the Supreme Court. In recent times, President George HW Bush made the cynical appointment of Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. The Republican party refused to allow Obama to make an appointment. However, they did support Trump’s three self-serving appointments. His soul intention was to stack the Supreme Court in his favor should his case ever be presented, as it probably will.

The confidence of Americans in the integrity of the judicial system has been totally undermined.

The destruction of the Supreme Court is probably the last and final act leading to the demise of our democracy. Historically, they have been the iconic final word on any judicial issue. They had the nation’s trust that their decisions would be just. One used to consider that the Supreme Court’s decisions were not bound by self interest or politics, but purely by deliberation and what was the best and correct decision for the nation.

This is all reminiscent of Hitler’s Germany all over again.

Ultimately, it seems as though the members of the Supreme Court are one way or another corrupt, can be bought by wealthy individuals and this is at the very heart of the destruction of this country. Money has taken over the entire governing system, from state elections to national elections, to the Supreme Court. A democracy really depends on the integrity of the electoral system in every state in the country, and the dedication of the individuals who run for office and who are elected.

It seems that character and integrity are not required for a perspective Supreme Court Justice. It’s easier to run for election for any position in the United States government than it is to get into a New York City Co-Op.

Truth Matters

The division in this country has become vast and dangerous. We are on the brink of losing our democracy and part of the reason for this largely rests with the Republican Party. Unfortunately, this is no longer the traditional Republican Party. This is now the party of Trump. Ex- President Donald Trump is a man who has clearly committed treason against the United States. The January 6th insurrection, an attack on the Capital of the United States of America, the papers that he has stolen from the White House, hidden at Mar A Lago, can only have been retained by him with intent to divulge classified information in return for some form of compensation or other favors.

In America today, does truth matter?

Alack Alas, The Rats A Mass

The streets of New York City were definitely never paved in gold, however, they were paved.  

In those days there was some element of continuity in any ten feet of city blocks. Today, you cannot walk on a sidewalk in Manhattan without a total change in the pavement. Just walking down Lexington Ave you will see that there is a different pavement about every ten feet.  

In other times, shopkeepers were responsible for maintaining the pavement outside of their shops and the pavements were uniform on any given block. 

This deterioration is causing unsafe and difficult passage for foot traffic with no one being held responsible. Furthermore, the proliferation of garbage on the streets has certainly not added to curb appeal. 

Every store, building, restaurant and diner are allowed to dump their garbage in piles on the sidewalks of New York City streets. These piles litter both the streets and also attract mice and rats.

On 57th street alone, between Park Ave and Lexington Ave, the collection of garbage on the street produced by The Palace Diner, Dunkin Donuts, Blank Street Coffee to name a few, generates pounds of garbage and over 18 rats were counted at one time at the same location.

The other day there was a bin on the street, it was a black, nicely designed discreet bin for garbage.  Why can’t the city of New York, one of the wealthiest cities in the world, work out a deal with the trade unions which would encourage and permit such garbage bins instead of the present collection of ugly plies of rat infested garbage? Replacing the garbage bags with bins would enormously improve the experience of walking through Manhattan, north, south, east and west.

It is absolutely imperative that all the citizens of New York City support Mayor Adam’s new initiative regarding trash in garbage bins to replace the rat infested garbage piles that currently litter our streets.

Credit must be paid

Several people have contributed to the Trump evil list. Joy Javits deserves major credit. Her father senator Jacob J Javits was a republican who represented exactly what a republican senator in this country should be. The Javits center is named after him, he was a great man, a great senator, his statue is there, and everyone should go to pay obeisance to a great republican, a great American and a great believer in Democracy.

Hell to the Chief

It is beyond understanding that Americans who claim to believe in America Democracy could ever have supported Trump as president of the USA. 

One can only come to the conclusion that the people who have supported him and continue to support him are bent on the destruction of the Democracy under which we as nation have flourished for the past 200+ years.
