#5 New York has adopted too many taxes to cover too many open end carrots and 1 side Political Correctness agendas all to attract for votes. It is again spending and taxing its way into Bankruptcy.

IF NYC comes begging for taxpayer $$$$ again...There MUST be some serious strings attached and mandatory limits on how it is spent.

The US Super Big Metro concept has repeatedly failed every place it was ran like a homeless shelter with endless handouts to attrach votes and political power.

Instead we must start requiring all Taxpayer handouts come with community service strings and self economic improvement paths to end life-long support. An any federal funds used have 100% open e-record for public accountability. The taxpayer should know every penny spent by WHOM, TO WHOM and JUSTIFIED IT.

Contractors, businesses and their owners receiving Taxpayer $$$$ should not be allowed to donate political $$$$$ for 5 years including to PAC's and SIG's and etc.
