Really, A Poor Door?

7/21/2014

0 Comments

 
I am truly appalled at the arrogance of some of these 1% snobs and their real estate brokers/investors.  How unconscionable for someone to presume that they are so far above everybody else and publicly be proud of saying it.

The quote is from this article that has me in a rage.

:http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/nyc-apartment-building-poor-door

Are we in the dark Ages, Stuck in the caste system of India? Do we not all breathe the same air? If you cut them is their blood a different color? Here is the quote I am referring to:  “No one ever said that the goal was full integration of these populations” David Von Spreckelsen, senior vice president at Toll Brothers, said. “So now you have politicians talking about that, saying how horrible those back doors are. I think it’s unfair to expect very high-income homeowners who paid a fortune to live in their building to have to be in the same boat as low-income renters, who are very fortunate to live in a new building in a great neighborhood.”


Does he really think that, what did the kids from long ago say, “You Might Catch their Cooties”.  I wonder if they need Emergency Services, Medical treatment, Are they going to ask for the Credit Scores, Bank Balances or their “Pedigree before Demanding their services? I think not.  Does this so called new building besides having separate entrances, does it also have separate lobbies?  Do they have separate mail carriers and zip codes too?


Hello, a little bit of history for you all snobs:
The Civil war is Over, “All men are created Equal.” There are no more Serfs and Lords of the Manor. Get over yourselves. They may have a lot of the money, but us 99% have the Heart and Soul.  I truly believe that the planning boards should take another look at what they are doing, and starting.

Stop thinking you are doing a good thing when you are allowing builders and investors to start having “Poor Doors”.  Ok I feel just a little bit better now, not much just a bit. Are you as upset as I am?   Maybe we should start voicing our opinions to the news and the planning boards and our “ political representatives. Maybe even to the New Mayor of New York?
If we don't continue to get our voices heard they will win and keep putting us down.

Ok I'm going to tweet now. Is the NYC mayor on Twitter? My next mission.
Ciao for now

My Reactions To A 60 Minutes Story

7/20/2014

0 Comments

 
Just have to put my two cents in again. While watching 60minutes tonight, I just got the urge to rant. Yes Bill and Melissa Gates along with Warren Buffett and others are doing great thing by giving their fortunes away to help others.  No denying that, but.... why not here in the U.S. A.?  Yes I know that they are almost single-handedly getting Polio eradicated, Yes they are providing all the basic things some of us take for ranted, and I think it is wonderful.

You know what? Why not help our homeless, our veterans and their families, and how about the families who lost everything and living in motels with their children? Pay it Forward in your own country.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the 1%, give a long hard look at what is really going on.  Not like the Wall Streeters who looked down from their balcony sipping champagne at Occupy Wall Street. Ladies and gentleman, our veterans allowed you to become what you are today.  Without their sacrifices and dedication in so many wars and conflicts, you would not be where you are today. Next time you see a homeless person, pay it forward, do something for them.  Instead of paying $40 in a upper East Side bistro for spaghetti and meatballs plus tax and tips donate $100 + to a worthy cause.  Leave your Gucci, Fendi, and all those labels home and volunteer in a soup kitchen. Show you have a heart not just for tax write offs.

Sadly a lot of people forget where they came from. Oh and John Boehner never lets us forget he worked in his father's bar.  Yet he will block many projects to help the less fortunate. I guess he remembers really well when it is convenient for him.  Got a question for you all, how many of our current politicians served in the Military?  (Yes I know POTUS didn't either) I bet you will be surprised at the answer and yet those who did go against help for our military and veterans.  We still can vote them out. Yes we can !! ( sorry had to say it)  So before I continue to rant on and on and on I will say... Do what we do best, haunt our politicians with our gripes and concerns. Tweet to those who think they are better than us 99%

Just one more thing, Smile, we are all in this together and Together we can make a Big Difference.

Ciao for now.

Does Time Heal All Wounds?

7/13/2014

They say “Time Heals all wounds,” Not in the realm of Politics.  Yes I am on a Soap box putting my Two Cents in Again.  A few years back, I wrote how we can fix the problems, and it seems to me Our illustrious leaders didn't listen (Simple Solutions to Our Problems 7/31/2011 ).  Two people I did forget to add was Nancy Pelosi and John Boehner, my bad.

It does not matter what political party you are affiliated with or what you believe in, We the people, who sadly voted them all in need to take a stand now.  We still have two chances, Yes two.  One is the Elections of 2014 and the other 2016.  That is right,we can succeed and make this a better country for all.  If we play our cards right, we can make the USA a Stronger better country.  Yes, we can bring jobs back, Yes we can have better healthcare for all our Veterans and jobs too.  Immigration laws need to be reinforced, hey my dad came to this country & was a naturalized citizen.  That is where I get my love for this country and why it is so strong.

So much needs to be fixed and we need to tell our politicians how we feel.  Writing and calling them, sending our suggestions.  Before I forget, I've got a good one for you.  Conflict of Interest, where family or close friends are Lobbyists, the Politicians Shall Recuse themselves from the vote (Wicked Evil Grin, then who will vote you ask? Oops the corporations won't get their I want, I want, I want).  The other is Full Disclosure, I know that might send some of our politicians into cardiac Arrest.  Full disclosure of their off shore accounts, full disclosure of the Real Political Donations, full disclosure of those insider meetings where there is Insider trading and Nobody gets charged with it.  A free pass except if it was you or I. Oh I can go on and on.

No this isn't pie in the sky, there are good politicians in both parties, sure we have to look hard at who they are affiliated with.   Yes, there are so many unscrupulous people out there who hide behind corporate owned and financed Shill Organizations.  Where the Lobbyists play for pay and politicians are on the Take, Did I say that??  I sure did, because back in the day, yes there were lobbyists and there was gangsters (not the ones today with the droopy pants) The ones the Feds went after using the Rico Act.  Hell I think we should use it on today's politicians and I'm going to say it …. Ready ….Some of Our TOP JUDGES!!   You all know who I mean, always a 5 to 6 vote favorite of ”Corporation are People.” Don't get me wrong there are some Damn good ones there that I truly respect.


As far as that goes, I thought, now correct me if I am Wrong please.   Corporations Are Run By People and People are on the Board of Directors.  Corporations have Articles of incorporation but if you cut up those Articles Do they Bleed? Do they have a heart and can have a Heart Attack & need CPR?  I think Not. Do I hear Chants of Corporations Are Not People??? I sure hope I do.


Now I hope I didn't make your eyes bleed from all this, but I sure do hope I made your head spin by giving you a lot to think about.   Oh here I go again, just one more thing.  We are Not the World's Police Department, The is what the United Nations was Created for.  We need to rebuild America, Stop Sending Aid to Countries that hate us and are in bed with other countries that want to destroy us.  Please Not so corporations can win at every game they put their hands in.  Good movie to watch I believe it came out in the 70's Soylent Green.


Ciao for Now and let us continue to make a difference. Pay it forward if you can.

Phew Hollywood Royalty

7/7/2014

0 Comments

 
On My Soap Box today!!
 The news just reported about Wimbledon, Yes William & Kate are Royalty, but what Irks me is that they also said "Hollywood Royalty" was in attendance.  That to me Is BS. Yes they get paid Millions for doing their chosen Craft, but they are Not Royalty.  Want to see Royalty, Look at the Men,Woman and War dogs who put their life on the line every day.  Look at Our First Responders, They Do Not Get paid 1/8 as much as the "Hollywood Royalty".  
When you see Our Veterans, Thank Them. When you see our active Military, Thank Them.  When you see our First Responders, Thank Them.  When you go to the Concerts and Movies, you  have already thanked them by buying that expensive ticket. 
Without all of them, we would not either be here or  have the rights that we have.  Unless they served, are Serving they are  Not Royalty.  Unless like Mr. Gary Senise and many others who take the time to help Our Warriors, I would bet they would not like to be called Royalty.  I would bet the farm that they would  be very embarrassed. 
My parting words of wisdom, which  is just my opinion.  When you look  for a  hero, look for the ones who don't brag, are flashing & command  a lot of money.  FYI my heroes where Dog Tags and are First Responders.
Ciao for Now,
