CrookstonDocumentary has made a comment on NY City Council never has conflicts of interest! Conflict of interest board biggest joke in town: You should be commended for your efforts to get these issues out. These fatcats seem to think they're untouchable. They work so hard to shut up individuals like such as yourself. Thank goodness for You Tube so we can bring this corruption out into the light. Keep up the good work. People are watching. You can reply to this comment by visiting the comments page. I think The NY Post and The NY Daily News and all local NYC outlets minus The NY eminent domain Times devoted to the rich real estate and their own demise -- should all post a banner -- this is how much Albany and City Hall are costing you w/corruption, bad choices, fake organizations, money doled out to developers that give them big campaign donations, how much we the tax payers are paying for Christine Quinn's high priced defense attorney along with her staff -- it should just be rolling along at the type of local news sites 24/7 -- to date Ms. Quinn has costed tax payers x amount, this charity was given x amount of pork aka tax payer money and so and relative is on their board -- it should be out there easily accessible highly visible. +Just a reminder -- city council voted themselves a raise....it was later exposed that many had a lousy attendance record with the exception of Tony Avella who had a perfect attendance record and voted against giving themselves a raise. Two other city council members out of 51 refused to vote themselves a raise. Also note at the time they did this the NYPD's starting salary was lowered. Even the harshest critics of the NYPD said this was wrong! Now Christine Quinn is actually going to check and make sure city council members live in their district! Also note ex-city council member Martinez voted to extend term limits. He later pleaded guilty to stealing tax payer money. He said he was stealing from the get go. Other aides to council members Kendall Stewart and Larry Seabrook pleaded guilty. I do not know how Seabrook and Stewart -- city council members who pleaded innocent were found innocent....how could they not have missed the money their assistants, one aide that pleaded guilty -- highest most aide staffer pleaded guilty and both Seabrook and Stewart have shady track records-- but they voted to extend term limits and both felt they had the right to return. I don't remember them apologizing for their staff stealing tax payer money. There are not alone being exposed for shady self serving dealings but why are they not booted out and or even jailed? City Council voting themselves a raise, voting to extend term limits was a conflict of interest and as far as I am concerned their votes are tainted. They denied us a referendum. There are investigations in to certain city council members still open and on going. So far for way too long they have been above scrutiny and the law. . | |
