Mike Bloomberg's private empire intersecting with his public empire
I love these photos. I think they are beautiful and also very haunting. Just beautiful the diverse women walking up the stairs like ballet dancers on stage but I just caught them being New Yorkers but so upsetting because I used to write the OPED section about NYC really being an oligarchy and also my fear one day we would see advertisements like this on the State of Liberty. Mike Bloomberg seems to confuse his private empire with his public empire and sadly the city council speaker Christine Quinn acts like she works for his private empire. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5zmHtdSZNw The off-shore mayor....Mike Bloomberg from Governor's Island to the Caymans and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_QI9yQZGIo Christine Quinn along with other high ranking NYC gov staff get free rides on Bloomberg's private plane...
When Mike Bloomberg says "progress", he means get your moving van.
