Not long ago, New York’s Mommy Mayor Bloomberg banned transfats in restaurant food. Wait till he hears about this!
Oh, goodie! Isn't this exciting! A team of academics and scientists, environmentalist wackos, and city planners looked into their crystal balls -- and they have a dire forecast for New York City.
By the year 2030, they warn, the city will have so many inhabitants there won't be enough electricity or housing to go around. Commuting will be a nightmare; rush hour will last all day. (Like it doesn't now?) New York's entire infrastructure must be overhauled. The energy grid has to be replaced. The subway system, still using 1940 technology, has to be modernized. A new network of roads must be built, and more housing -- if people are going to avoid homelessness.
If changes aren't made now -- while there's still time -- New York City is doomed, they say. But the expert panel has ideas to save it. (What do you think they ideas are?) Well, city drivers should pay higher taxes. New Yorkers oughta pay more taxes -- including taxes on every pound of trash (and let's recalculate how we define "trash" to get more tax).
But I don't think this is going to be enough, folks. Survival will cost hundreds of billions of dollars -- maybe trillions. New Yorkers must make difficult choices; time to look this problem dead in the eye and defeat it -- and there's only one solution.
If you New Yorkers want to survive, keep your culture, keep your city -- keep hope alive -- each one of you must budget. Honestly. Determine what you need to live on -- no frills. Then retain only that amount and send the rest to New York City's government. Tax yourselves. For survival. Or face doom in 2030. It's your choice. Over and out.

The Future Of Toronto?
The buzzword of many in Toronto is "world class" and they strive to have Toronto become world class like maybe New York but it seems like the Big Apple is having some problems and they are implementing measures similar to what our No Plan B mayor is talking about......

About Me
- Unhypentated Canadian
- I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
