Bloomberg's plan is very simple. Destroy the working class
Environment. CLEANSE these "undesirables" from
ALL 5 Boroughs. This stretches as far out to the Long Island border of Queens to the northern most
Part of the Bronx. He wants it all luxury.

He wants all native New Yorkers OUT so he can move in foreign $ and wealthy suburbanites into the city from OTHER states.

He wants to rid any trace of old
New York.

It will happen. The billionare mayor rules and nobody can stop him.

The sandal wearing, barefooted, bearded
Late 20's yuppies with California accents
Will all move to Coney Island and make of completely
Corporate. They will bring their Pabst Blue Ribbon,
Contemporary furniture, and their trust funds to Coney Island, the Bronx, Staten Island, etc
To coney island. They will open Jamba Juices,
Coffee shops with "indie" music, $10 beer places
Where outsiders (new yorkers) are not
Welcome. This is their revenge on real new yorkers for not being accepted, making their own stupid and wussy looking
Scene for people who are wearing sandals, beards, cut
Off shorts, skin tight jeans, and goofy 70's and 80's crap.

They just live off trust funds and steal styles and make them look ridiculous. These people suck!

Take your own boring crap lives back to the suburbs and stop messing with us natives. Tale your damn lawn chairs out of times square and back to Idaho!!!
