Bloomberg the economic nazi Friday, January 06, 2012
I have to
pick my cat up from the vet this morning, so I am not taking the light rail this
morning and so have time to listen longer to the news stations and to the most
recent rants of Mayor Bloomberg about how the poor ought to be fingerprinted.
I keep
thinking: Why doesn’t he just tattoo numbers on their wrists so he can keep
track of them, until he find some more permanent solution?
Bloomberg
is an economic Nazi.
He doesn’t
hate blacks or Jews, he hates poor people – especially if they’re cluttering up
a city he sees as an economic engine.
Gypsies and
others who do not fit into the exploitation system have no place in his world,
only like the Nazis of old, he hasn’t figured out a way to get them out of the
city.
If someone isn’t feeding the tax
monster or getting his or her pocket picked by the tourist industry, then they
are not welcome in
Nelson Rockefeller – considered a
moderate Republican – came up with a series of laws so odious that ordinary
people caught with minor amounts of drugs went to jail for outrageous periods
of time.
Rudy Giuliani perfected the use of
law enforcement as means of slum clearance by arresting people for minor
offenses in the theory that petty criminals would be kept from more serious
crimes.
These
strategies helped clear the inner city, making it acceptable for white middle
class to move back, but the prisons are already overburdened and cost a lot of money,
especially with Obama’s mass exportation of immigrants. And building and
operating new jails is just too expensive a solution these days when guards are
unionized.
Like the
Nazis of old, Bloomberg has come up with schemes of his own for relocating the
homeless – even offering to buy them the tickets, not on transports to
Holocaust
experts note that there are steps leading to the final solution – a pattern
that the Nazis only perfected, but did not invent. People are singled out
somehow, stripped of their economic foundations, isolated, and then
exterminated.

But
enforcement was inconsistent. While poor blacks went to jail for drug crimes
under Rockefeller, the social elite openly abused drugs in places like Club 54.
While street vendors did unfairly compete with established businesses I the
1980s, under cutting their prices, this was partly due to the exorbitant fees
the city charged for someone to do business and the outrageous rent and lack of
commercial rent control that forced established business to rip off the public
with high charges.
Bloomberg
excuses his fingerprinting of the poor saying that this prevent fraud for
people collecting food stamps, this at a time when his friends on Wall Street
and his pals in the banking industry, get away with murder by stealing
billions.
Madoff went
to jail, partly because he stole from the wealthy. Most of the super rich
Bloomberg calls his friends aren’t finger printed and get away with a lot more
than food stamp fraud.
Where is
the justice?
Why isn’t
Bloomberg buying those people tickets to the nearest state prison?
