Your solution would surely require the inclusion of a pianist and saw operator with a top hat and a waxed mustache?
How broken does shit have to get before folks wake the fuck up?
This ridiculous bullshit is just the tip of the iceberg. Time to join the class war, 40 years late to the party.
Damn. Fooled by the title pic once again. I thought the story was going to be the landlords hired Snake Plissken to hunt down the tenants.
But you don’t like it when others lump you in with a group and in so doing, make rounding errors about character or intent?
Change begins at home my friend. Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Bagels and lox.
When I used to almost-commute to NY on business I would get off the plane, meet my business partner and that was the first stop. Eating bagels with the trimmings on the deck of a sailboat in Long Island Sound on an autumn evening is a religious experience.
The rest of the list is pretty long but I won’t bore you with it.
For me, I’m afraid, NY is defined by food and water.
This is another reason why we need Land Value Taxation (LVT) like Henry George said.
I do not understand how any of this can be legal. Surely those crap landlords should be dragged before the courts and made to pay for all their damage, and then lose control over the buildings they intentionally mismanage?
The US clearly needs better tenant protection.
Aristotle? What did he do to deserve Ayn Rand?
Plato, now. “Philosopher kings” separated from the common herd and put in charge of society. Yes, I could get alongside including Plato. He and his teacher Socrates would be in there, writing in the WSJ, justifying getting the poor out of the city. Why did the democrats give Socrates a choice of exile or death? Because he was proposing an aristocratic government.
Seriously? The pizza? Not the bagels?
EDIT: argh, @Enkita beat me to it.
