Be careful what you approve. It might be detrimental to your way of life.
So, NYC’s mayor Eric Adams is upset with having to spend over nine million bucks per day to accommodate illegal migrants. Why? Isn’t NYC a sanctuary city, proclaimed to be so because Trump was declared a xenophobe? Can’t have NY liberals letting that go without a compassionate response born of liberal idealism and the quest for power.
But now, the consequences of legislating for purely political reasons is hitting the city’s finances, crowding its available spaces, and introducing diseases, drugs, and homeless people to its environs. Who’s to blame here? And who has the temerity to complain to others for actions taken for political power?
Could there be any places more hypocritical than the sanctuary NYC, Boston, and Chicago? Oh! Yes, the sanctuary island of Martha’s Vineyard. Took those residents less than a day to start exiling the immigrants flown to them by Texas.
NYC’s Mayor Adams wants the Federal Government to help. He wants the taxes supplied by other places to fund his city’s broken policy. He wants your money to pay for his city’s policies.
Here’s a prediction born of experience: Regardless of the failed policies of liberal leaders of major cities, the citizens of those cities will continue to keep them in control. The citizens will step over the homeless on their streets—and over human feces—on their way to the voting booth and vote for the very people who have drained their cities’ coffers on Leftwing policies. Rising crime will not change their minds. Rising costs will not change their minds. Continuing neighborhood degradation will not change their minds. Rising death counts from fentanyl will not change their minds.
Nothing will change their minds unless they are personally affected. MS-13 violence? Now more than 200,000 fentanyl deaths? Now tranq’s living dead? Decreased police presence? More criminals released without rehabilitation to more peaceful lives? Increases in shootings and homicides? Exploitation of children run into the sex slave trade by drug and human trafficking cartels infiltrating the country? More men in women’s restrooms and locker rooms? Nothing. And possibly coming to a liberal legislature near you, more euthanasia ALA Canada, killing off Americans for reasons such as debt and disability—even children. Yeah, that’s probably coming to a compassionate legislature near you. But even such a shift toward Nazi-style society will probably not change their minds. And in the most glaring example of psychological projection, those who will not change and who will allow creeping control over citizens will shout “Nazi” and “Fascist” at any conservative or group of conservatives.
That which is not personal is meaningless.
I wonder how any voter might vote if the consequences of past votes were personal.
That which is not personal is meaningless. NYC’s mayor saw nothing personal in the sanctuary city status of his city until it affected his city. So, too, Boston’s, Chicago’s, and other sanctuary cities’ mayors. When they saw no personal effects, they saw no meaning in a secure border. Effects that affect are meaningful.
That which is not personal is meaningless. That which is not personal is meaningless.
That which is personal is meaningful. Too bad Mayor Adams had to learn that lesson the hard way. Now he has an out-of-control migrant problem that he can’t solve with his city’s resources.
Make your check payable to Eric Adams, c/o City of New York. In writing that check, you’ll make that which you thought wasn’t personal, personal, and, therefore, meaningful. Not going to write it? Where do you think the Feds will get the money to send to Eric?
