Well, no, what happened is Eric Adams, like, the one thing you got to hand it to him, and I can say this, I was living in New York City, I saw the transition from de Blasio to Eric Adams.

As Eric Adams, like, the one thing he would always point to as, like, the dub of his mayoral, like, administration was that he actually, like, got the city quite clean.

Like, the rat population did decline quite extensively.

So when Mamdani came in, the first thing he did was undo every single executive order that Eric Adams had declared.

And a lot of those executive orders related to sanitation, related to, again, extermination.

So these sorts of things happen.

You reverse that.

Suddenly, all these city workers who were once tasked to sanitation are now tasked elsewhere.

And that's why you're seeing this massive destruction of the city.

Well, it's funny because the wealthiest of the wealthy, the truly elite, are pretty much untouched by any of these policies.

You look at how New York City operates fundamentally.

Look at the new, they call them the toothpick towers by Central Park, Billionaire's Row.

Those are owned by Saudis.

They're owned by...

And maybe Americans have their wealth stored elsewhere, these sorts of things.

Even Donald Trump, like Trump Tower, these sorts of things, he's like Mr. New York City.

His residency is in Florida now.

He's paying Florida taxes, but he still obviously has a huge fund for New York City.

So it's like the top earners, those types of guys, this doesn't affect them at all.

Yeah, well, I mean, New York City is a great example of how the elite function in New York City.
