Yesterday The New York Post<\/a> posted an article about a recent statement by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio about one of the things that will happen if Joe Biden is elected President.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Mayor Bill de Blasio is hoping a federal stimulus package akin to FDR\u2019s New Deal will help curtail crime in the Big Apple, he said Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking to NY1\u2019s Errol Louis, Hizzoner said if Joe Biden is elected president, New Yorkers should expect a stimulus deal that will help get the city \u201cback on its feet\u201d and combat a spike in murders, shootings and burglaries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf Joe Biden\u2019s elected president, the most likely time for a major stimulus is February, and I\u2019m thinking along the lines of the New Deal, and he\u2019s obviously talking about emulating FDR,\u201d the mayor said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe second we have that, New York City\u2019s in a position to address a whole host of issues, avert layoffs, but also to do a lot of positive things,\u201d he added.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mayor also said a coronavirus vaccine that is expected in a matter of months will help reboot the city\u2019s economy \u2014 and drive crime down.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let me do a little translating here. What the Mayor is looking for is a stimulus package that will undo the bad fiscal management that has plagued New York City for some time. One of the reasons the stimulus package has not passed is that the Democrats in the House of Representatives want to use the stimulus to bail out Democrat-controlled cities that have huge budget deficits. The Republicans in the Senate want to use the stimulus bill to help businesses and their employees get back on their feet. It should be noted that in a well run city, getting businesses and employees back on their feet will increase tax revenue; and if the city is run well, help deal with any budget deficit. We have a number of cities in America that need to get their spending under control. A federal bailout will not help curb their excessive spending and should not happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
