   Ya, but I'd say there is a very good chance that NYC will 'elect' a socialist   
   mayor who has already said that he will make everything gov't owned.  We have   
   plenty of history to show how that will end up.   
      
   I think we can say that less than half the people in the city now are useful   
   people.  If that number was larger then they wouldn't have had the socialist   
   mayors of late either.   
      
   So they are past the point of no return there.  Socialism will come in.    
   Everything will collapse - like it always does under socialism.  The Left will   
   screech because Trump will not fund them.  The city will die and the useful   
   people will come back in and buy it back up for pennies.

   But there's not enough people there to get him elected.

   Just like the Socialist Utopia of California.   
      
   If it wasn't for the Deep State in Washington propping them up with our tax   
   dollars, California would have failed hard long ago.   
      
      
   ... You can never get rid of a bad temper by losing it.
