Very important.

 

Don't forget to bring a big shovel for all the bull****!!!!!

 

Ryan will tell us that the State of the City is great despite the 15% increase in business taxes in two years, despite the 42% increase in violent crime in 18 months, despite the home invasions, despite the resignation of yet another police chief next month (maybe The Press & Sun-Bulletin will mention that sometime to its readers), despite the firefighters' contract of $13,000,000 per year for more firefighters than any other city per capita in the US, despite Court Street having more empty store fronts than any time in the history of the City, despite buildings actually falling into the streets, despite parking ramps collapsing, despite the inability of the City to keep the garbage off the streets, despite the former City Comptroller admitting publicly the City is on the verge of insolvency, despite almost every negative indicator you can think of, Ryan will tell us things are fine.

 

BRING THOSE SHOVELS.

Easy to get elected but imagine the mess the person will face.

 

Ryan and his Citizen Action cronies are raping and looting the city every day. It wil take years and years to dig out of the hole they are burying us in.
