    i don’t think the NYPD has strong opposition to cheaper groceries and more efficient busses? i’m as tired as the next guy but he ran on a budget freeze at most. it makes no sense to attack the guy for falling short of some ideal he never espoused when we have perfectly awful things where he actually has betrayed himself from four months ago.

      They are absolutely in collusion with the landlord class and business owner class, capital exerts control over the NYPD and they are larger than many nations armies. The levels of patronage and bribery of the NY Judicial System + NYPD is on a scale of a major military base occupying the city, comparable to Baghdad during occupation. You just don’t get anything done they don’t want done.
