Did Bloomberg really say this?

9. So what if he said it? How did he actually manage his three terms as NYC Mayor? And...

not just Stop & Frisk.

And how does he manage his business? Is he the rapacious, irresponsible crook we see in Trump? Or is it one where employees, customers, and the greater community benefits? The concept of owning a business is neutral-- it's how you run the business that counts.

There are legitimate macroeconomic arguments about social experiments such as minimum wage. I have no idea which of them might be worthwhile, but some make sense. What does make more sense is the argument that having a nation of people who can't pay their bills is obviously a problem. I have not seen Mayor Mike have a "Let them eat cake" attitude, but I am unsure what his solution may be. Although Jewish, he may have come across Jesus' comment that the poor will always be with us. My limited understanding of Jewish views on poverty lead me to think he would be concerned, but not look to the state for a cure. So, I discount throwaway comments like his, if he even made them.

Overall, I think Bloomberg is another flawed human, but with few, if any, harmful flaws. He is not my first choice, but I would certainly be agreeable to giving him a shot at the job. He is the kind of billionaire we could use more of.

BTW, he was a registered Democrat until 2001 when there was no room at the inn, so he ran as a Republican. And won.
