Nono, that's not what you said. You said "towns waste space". Please, expand on that, I'm dying to know what you mean, as it just seems like a laughably absurd statement to make.

Between him and DiBlasio, they really screwed up New Yorkers.

Diblasio can’t run again this year fortunately and it’s a strong possibility he is replaced by Andrew Yang. He’s the current front runner for the democratic nomination.

I def like Yang, but it seems like Stringer would be alright as well.

I guess, I don't know. You can take the government option if you want but it should exist.

Yes and it would be nice if Cuomo was impeached or resigned and we got Kathy Hochul as Governor. She has far less of an ego than Cuomo and doesn’t grandstand.

How dictatorial of you. Although given your recent comments and ideals, it is not surprising.

Government builds or buys apartments from private companies for people in cities. If you don't want a government apartment then you don't have to take it.

I imagine it would make for a great dystopian novel.
Leftist, commie and Antifa Guy. Democratic Confederalist, Anti-racist

"The devil is out there. Hiding behind every corner and in every nook and cranny. In all of the dives, all over the city. Before you lays an entire world of enemies, and at day's end when the chips are down, we're a society of strangers. You cant walk by someone on the street anymore without crossing the road to get away from their stare. Welcome to the Twilight Zone. The land of plague and shadow. Nothing innocent survives this world. If it can't corrupt you, it'll kill you."

No. Let me put your statement to you again: "towns waste space". Explain it without resorting to talking about cities, as that is not an explanation of that statement.
