    People are so used to how bad things are they don’t trust improvement, even when it’s real.

      don’t trust improvement

      *By a corrupt government which has proven itself to mismanage funds as a default.

      Can’t really speak to NYC local but time will tell. Although to give them credit, most NYers I’ve met enjoy their public transportation. But the admonishment of general government expenditure distrust is completely valid imo

        NYC as an institution has many hard-working people at all levels dedicated to their communities.

        The mayor, however, is a worthless self-serving piece of shit that sold out to foreign nationals, and a good chunk of the city elite are corrupt one way or another.

        It’s a very, very mixed bag.
