So Alternet makes it more about climate change then the fact that infrastructure was neglected.  And here is a list of mayors  since 1974--of those 47 years, Democrats were in power 27 years, however Bloomberg's party affiliation only serves his interests

Before 2001  Bloomberg had been a Democrat. Between 2001 and 2007, he had been a Republican. Between 2007 and 2018, he had been an Independent, since 2018 he has been a Democrat once again!) https://politic-ed.com/2020/02/17/michael-bloomberg-running-democrat

So basically, Democrats were in power 39 years, Republicans only 8 years in a city dominated by Democratic party 

The city government of New York City controls a budget of about $78.3 billion a year, as of 2016. Officials receive municipal funding for their campaigns, and are elected for a maximum of two terms. City government is dominated by the Democratic Party, which also normally attracts majority support within the city in State, Congressional, and Presidential elections. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics_of_New_York_City

So in conclusion, the Democrats failed to make sure the infrastructure was updated, fixed, and not neglected.

and now dems are trying to do something about it. so is repair & updating needed or not? is climate change being affected by man or not? is blaming dems & doing nothing helping or not?

Shoving all the parking underground allows builders to devote their project’s...

This is why 0_U812 and golfer06 won't be moving to Miami, since there's no mommy's basement for them to live in.

I'm not moving there because I don't want to live in America's penis.

Biden is now encouraging OPEC to produce more oil while at the same time working to reduce the U.S. production of oil.:huh:

It was actually a peaceful and calm couple of days on the thread until you came back.
