Gov vetos NYPD FDNY pension http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/21/opinion/l-police-and-fire-pay-raises-705802...

Other questions, why does the State of New York take so much from NYC and give so little back? (The State always seems to be taking from NYC but never returning the love to put it nicely).

Why does the state and city turn a blind eye to certain sectors and continue to lean heavy on others like the NYPD to the detriment of the people of NYC?

Why has the city not done anything to collect mass amounts of money from DOB and ECB fines as libraries and fire houses are threatened with closings and so many other programs, etc.

My first youtube on pension catastrophe and scandal -- two different issues - scandal in text portion.

I am profoundly upset by any cuts to the NYPD and I want them to have the best incentives and support for recruiting and to be the best officers they can be.

  • have you seen the bloated penstions of high ranking NYFD members? it's out rageous. it's costing the city millions in the long run. the city must stop these nutty pensions to people who work like 3 days a week.

  • @lekesha00 Thank you for your comment. I don't agree with you. What is bloated is the corruption, the theft of stolen tax payer money. For instance so far 80 million of tax payer money has been exposed as stolen. We have 3 billion in tax payer spending on a 911 Tech System and CityTime which are highly flawed. The MTA is stealing or getting money hand over fist and where is it going? No to subway station expansion and service but to failed or flawed tech systems. You and I don't agree.

  • @lekesha00 Thank you for your comments. Again I don't agree. Sept. 11 a record amount FDNY died. In fact there is more intense involved training that not any volunteer can do. I wish they did not lower the test. My MD is a woman, no one lowered her test to make it easier.  What ever your accusations re: racism and sexism -- it goes on in The White House, corp. America, etc. bloated salaries, pensions, perk & I would start at a Federal Level, Albany NYC gov. U sound prejudice against FDNY.

  • @Suzannahartist well, i disagree with you 100%. i recently read in the newspaper a roll call of firemen who make over 280k in pensions. you mean to tell me that not only are these men getting paid by the city for 20 yrs but now the city must pay them for the next 40 yrs. if you take 280k over alife time, thats millions. that's INSANE for someone who puts out fires. lets be real, most firepersons in this country are volunteers. don't even get me started on the racism and sexism in the nyfd.

  • Suzannah, keep up the good work. I think that your videos are starting to have an impact. More people should be asking questions, especially regarding where all of the money is being siphoned to. I wouldn't be surprised if it is found that Bloomturd's buddies' pockets are getting fatter!!!

  • NYC and Upstate need to become their own separate entities if both ever wish to achieve their missions, I understand the urban and rural diversity this state enjoys, but strictly on a political level this clash of societies has resulted in a series of inefficiencies in Albany that will continue until they separate for good.
