He’s Nuts – New York City Mayor de Blasio Wants $7.4 Billion Bailout
The word “absurd” doesn’t even begin to describe this ridiculous demand by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio as he publicly says he wants the federal government to replace all of the missing revenue from the COVID-19 economic shut-down. This is bonkers.

If the federal government was to even consider taking such action it would essentially be promoting all states and cities to remain shut-down forever; because, in the mind of those who live from the government trough, there would be no need to reopen. The mental disconnect here is incredible. I think the needle on my ‘nope-meter‘ just broke off.

DiBloviate at his best. It's always someone else's responsibility to foot the bill for the LibProgTard mismanagement and squandering that passes for economic policy.

 

[Jmac00]

all the states with un-balanced budgets will be looking to the CoVid-19 bail out, to balance there budgets.

This virus, is an opportunity to fix an un-fixable budget, without raising taxes, and pissing off every constituent in the state.

this is simply a liberal opportunity to take advantage of a crisis.

It would be hysterical if the Feds went after NYC for damages for telling people to congregate like nothing was wrong as the Kung Flu was ramping up.

 

[GOPerfect]

So, in five weeks, the city lost out on 7.5 billion? Yeahhhhhh, right.

Want to save some serious money? I can assist with that.

Stop all programs for non-citizens.

No free medical.

No free education.

no free housing.

No free food.

No free social services.

No free language lessons.


Stop all of this free shit and save a boat load of money. Money that belongs to the citizens of the State and of the Country.

This all makes perfect sense to someone with common sense. Even the power hungry libtards in charge of this state know this. If they did it they wouldn't get reelected so they'll just keep pissing away our money on illegals and free shit to buy votes.
If the feds even consider bailing out state debts then the money should come with strings attached. No more sanctuary cities. No more stomping on citizens second amendment rights. You know - more common sense stuff.

If the governor is so great and in charge as he wanted shouldn’t he be asking the governor for the money? Why is it the feds job to replace all this?

WE, yes even us bumpkins way the fuck out here, pay for this utter nonsense and this fool wants even more of our money, from a different pocket, to defray the cost of more bad decisions made down there, by him and cumo.
The two of them truly do have blood on their hands.

Sure, Bitch McConnell wants NY to go bankrupt. He clearly stated why should he be responsible for NYs pension programs. Where have all the first responder supporters here vanished to? What happens when cops, fireman, state, and city workers no longer receive the pensions they busted their asses for?
And besides NY puts more money into the federal pot than any other state in the nation. Republicon leaders like Mitchies Kentucky will starve without NYs DONOR Handouts. Mitch the Bitch and Republicons are posturing for their dumbass base and doing nothing as usual.

Not sure where this thought came from but ..

From the mouthes of some smart lawyers and accountants .... bankruptcy will not eliminate NYS from pension obligations, NYS pensions are well funded to date, and a Constitutional amendment would be needed to relieve NYS taxpayers from the state pension obligations.

Maybe you are talking about some other state.

To stay off topic for a moment.

There is no legal framework for states to declare bankruptcy.

Understood. Just piling on from the "if allowed" assumption from MM comments.

Um, wait a second.

You actually think that if a state goes bankrupt people on state pension simply get no more money ever again? You don't realize they get renegotiated?

Again- no mechanism for state bankruptcy nor should there be. States are sovereigns. If a state were somehow to declare bankruptcy (in what court, I might ask?) that would likely put (someone in) the federal government in charge of a state - which is at immediate loggerheads with the constitution.

There's no constitutional nor statutory mechanism by which they can declare bankruptcy- BUT... ah... but... they CAN default on their obligations.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Wait, I found some money... sort of.

De Blasio and ‘co-mayor’ wife have wasted $1.8B of taxpayer money

Who’s got a billion to burn? Well, Bill de Blasio for sure. But also mayoral spouse Chirlane McCray, who has just been revealed as a world-class boondoggler in her own right. Hey, the family that p…

Okay, let Illinois go first.

They have been mismanaging OUR money, both of them and when the rubber meets the road it will be OUR money that balances the books. Just the money from cumo's corrupt schemes that has made his buddies multimillionaire's, like the Buffalo Boondoggle would go a long way toward making us right again. The pathetic fools that vote for these tyrants and are so enamored with their hijinks should pony up and volunteer their personal assets, both liquid and real, to help their their lord and master survive this cesspool of his own making.

Obligations become meaningless if the money isn't there. And as far as NYs pension systems being well funded your incorrect.

Limey, when there's no money there's nothing to negotiate. Greece had similar guarentees for their public employees too. But we know how that went
