People say they dont like revenue redistribution, but it has been going on for years now....with the redistributing going to the already wealthy.
I wish i could afford to buy a politician or ten.

Tomorrow we see how thoroughly Big Real Estate bought NYC's mayor- a ridiculous proposal goes in front of the Transportation Council that would kill the carriage horse industry, because Steve Nislick wants the real estate where the stables are.

It's really, really depressing how blatantly obvious the whole thing is and how Nislick and NYCLASS have relied on animal lovers' ignorance of equine welfare to get them screaming to ban an industry that saves horses from going to slaughter at a young age. But the rich win. Always. And tomorrow it likely will be horses and solid union jobs paying the price.

Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.
