So this Nutter supporter blames himself in part for the state the city is in....No doubt a Democrap rube, who will go back to voting for leftists in the next election. I wonder when he’ll learn to do the math on welfare recipients as well.

Isn’t it funny how all the heavily infested liberal municipalities are going bankrupt? Hmm I wonder why?

I think what is really needed is some good old fashioned platitudes. Here goes...again:

We need some bold and innovative solutions.

Whew! I know I feel better now, how ‘bout you?

“Is this fair? No, it’s not fair. “

It’s fair to the taxpayers.

Say you run a waste collection company and give cash to politicians in exchange for a city contract. If you get caught, you’re all in big trouble.

At the same time, a public employee union hands a politician campaign cash. The pol repays the union with fat raises and pensions... but it’s all perfectly legal?

Bribery is illegal. And cities are bankrupt. And bankruptcy protects taxpayers from debt slavery, just like it protects consumers.

Face it, public employee unions across the country: taxpayers have figured it out. No more high wages. No more fat pensions. These dirty, stinkin’ contracts obtained by naked bribery are going to be thrown out by bankruptcy courts. START LOOKING FOR JOBS!

Philly is a corrupt, union goon, high tax, trial lawyer paradise, democrat/socialist hellhole.

There is a reason why Philly has lost HALF of its population in the last 30 years.

Let it go bankrupt.

Hard to imagine the very ideas of American liberty and freedom started there.

I think the City operates under some sort of State over site. A Law designed and passed in the 80’s.( I think). Adding to my lack of knowledge on this, if I’m correct is exactly what this Mayor could actually do on his own. I know something is in place..

Philadelphia - bankrupt already just waiting for the lawyers to handle the case. It won’t get much better for many other liberal cities. Bad things are coming...

I grew up in DelCo, and moved to Central Pa 31 years ago. Philadelphia was a hell hole when I left and has only declined. The Democrat infested city five miles from my home today, Harrisburg, is in worst shape than Philadelphia. I am separated by the Susquehanna River from Harrisburg but their culture is increasing spilling over to this side of the river. This is similar to what happened to Delaware, Montgomery, and Bucks counties while I was growing up, except there was no river.

Politically speaking there is no hope for Philadelphia or Harrisburg. The majority of people elected to city council and the mayor's office are minorities that lack basic education. They are products of city schools. They are products of the Democrat party. They are products of unions.

What is so hideous is they are unable to even investigate the root causes of successful communities near them, let alone emulate them. They look to Chicago, Detroit and Los Angeles for more liberal programs that will never cure their ills. In the mean time, refugees from Philadelphia and Harrisburg migrate to the suburbs looking for safety. But they are still liberals and they infect every place that they go. The results are simple. Each day in the places that they move more resemble the places that they came.

I can't wait to leave where I live today before it becomes a hell hole. There is little that I can do that is legal to stop the influx of Rats.

“We voted for the politicians who promised us something for nothing. Things got bad so we voted again for the politicians who promised us something for nothing. We laughed at those old cultures that believed in magic, but we kept voting for the politicians who assured us they had found The Philosophers Stone.”

How are they going to pay for those sex change operations they just approved if they are bankrupt.

Philadelphia had an unprecedented economic boom during WWI.They were begging people to come to live and work there(very similar to the present oil-boom in The Dakotas).Philadelphia produced a huge amount of war-material and helped us win.The problem with Philadelphia is simple.The Unions took over and The DemonRats.They promised the moon and couldn’t deliver the stars.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
