DeBlasio is doing the opposite, he's pissed off many businesses especially developers and small businesses. Well to do folks are fleeing because the taxes and general quality of life has deteriorated. You can't make this stuff up that's why both liberals and conservatives aren't happy with him. He's busy running around spending donors money pretending he's got an outlier chance of staying in the race. He's got cronies promoted and paid well while the city revenue has nosedived. The cops aren't writing tix as much and arrests are down. By April next year, Cuomo is gonna demand that the city cut costs or send more taxes up to Albany.
Cuomo announces income tax revenues have dropped by $2.3B

Opinion:
Well written.
I am happy to see I am not the only one out there that sees the writing on the wall.
I am of the strong opinion the mayor had an idea to quickly level out the economic field.
His ideas to bring the impoverished up to par with the middle class overnight is a failure.
His idea of investing in the future of New York was investing in poverty rather than jobs and business.
You can't make money giving out free cheese but you sure can create jobs by raising buildings.
Raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour to tighten the gap between the poor and middle class
has already eroded business in the city. Just look at all those empty store windows or store fronts
frequented by less and less folks. He has destroyed the mom and pop shops of this city, the fabric
by which immigrants gain a foothold towards greater affluence. He has turned our police force into a mockery
and those greatest of investors, those born ,raised, acquired a nest egg by working hard will now empty out
their bank accounts,sell their homes and spend their N.Y. pensions in other states that will show them the
respect they deserve. Thanks Billy Boy.......Thanks for nothing...................
