For a city that is supposedly busted, Sam the Eagle and that some kind of piece of city council are still spending money like drunken sailors on shore leave.

If you seriously think it’s the 1% then I have a fine selection of bridges to sell you.

At best it’s the 0.01%.

And when 2/3 of the votes went to DeBlasio that’s obviously not just 1% of NYC voting for him. All but SI went at least 60-70% Democrat.

deBlasio's to blame for the rent now? I'll pull up a chair to hear this one.

You know this is really aimed at ppl living in overcrowded apts.

And yes, it's the 1%.

It sounds enticing at first -- 2 weeks for free (including food) at a NYC hotel. But...don't forget, you're not allowed to leave. Not even to the hallway. At all. No visitors, so forget having your drug dealer come by. It's an isolation hotel.

The Eagles come to mind...

So essentially you need to bring enough for a 14 day binge.

you act as if thy would really have people watching you, they wont. At worst they will make you install an app to track you and make it seem like they are doing something.

LOL do you think they will assign a cop to your door? lol

Oh Ok, in that case it sounds like a lovely place to vacation for two weeks. Thanks for the heads up on no cops -- I'll go make the call right now, and I'll also try to make sure they have my favorite foods on the menu.
