Last week’s bribery charges against 70 New York City Housing Authority employees are just the latest in a long list of scandals by low- and mid-level public workers in New York who abuse their power over their public mini-fiefdoms.
On Tuesday, the Manhattan US attorney accused the employees of skimming $2 million in bribes in connection with NYCHA repair contracts worth less than $10,000 apiece but that added up to a whopping $250 million.
The bribes averaged about $28,000 per worker, though some managers made far more. Nirmal Lorick hauled in $153,000 from $1.3 million in contracts, prosecutors say; Juan Mercado scored $314,300 off $1.8 million in contracts.
Comment:
All of these deep blue Democrat cities are ripe with corruption.
These large Democrat cities also control the state electoral votes.
Once the Dems get control of the voting system, they never lose another election.
The real election is the Democrat primary race.
....and they are saving our "democracy"
