What you don’t get is that the current default is draconian NYC government excessive control. That is why nothing gets done in this city unless it is late and overbudget. Arguing against the state coming in and overriding NYC’s excessive control is actually arguing for government control.

In other words, if you are against too much government interference, then you should actually be siding in this case with NY State / Cuomo.

Are you understanding or are you just arguing without realizing the situation?
