Power Perks

Here's another article from the Post that comes as no surprise:

CAMPAIGN $$ BUYS POLS' POWER PERKS

When the pols tell you the state or city has no money to help you achieve something, rest assured it's because they are spending our tax money foolishly and selfishly and since they write the laws, it's all legal.

Now that's real balls! A legal defense fund for Brian Mc Laughlin? Why don't they ask his good friends the Staviskys to give him the money! They supported Brian for years! Just throw Mc Laughlin into a cell with some of his "union brothers" (the same ones he stole from!) Maybe they'll pay for his lawyers!

I don't see Councilman Dennis Gallagher's name listed! Oh, maybe he gets his under the table!

Here is a useful nugget: half of all political litigation in this county is in one state.

New York.

Would it not be useful for a city wide committee start a public campaign for their officials to clean this up, and post on a website their progress with each official?
