As a country bumpkin, I love the atmosphere that NYC can bring to life in real terms, but things can get out of hand quickly there... In the late 1970's the longshoreman's unions let ships from Chile sit in the harbor to rot what at THAT time was $7 million dollars worth of fresh fruit.... Today's value... who knows?
Then on the other hand, I'm not anti union....Just saying only in the BIG APPLE!!!
Forgot to add, the produce brokers after that begin bringing the Chile fresh products into the Philadelphia harbors rather than NYC harbors... (why because they lost MONEY!!! )... I'm next to completely ignorant about unions but those in Philadelphia, Pa. seemed to have no problem with the figures for unloading ships. There is something very unique about NYC, that I don't understand... I mean a union is a union in most folks eyes.
But, consider that a new school teacher in very rural Virginia could live on a fraction of what new school teachers in NYC need to survive... And vice versa??? Not a chance!!
I think at some point in history, there will need to be some major corrections..... Hey I was a teacher long ago.
Stop complaining and go bet Monmouth
The OP should get his Liberal ass out of that seat and go to the high school track at 2:00 & run 4 laps in 98 degrees & 95% humidity
I think you don't quite get what I'm asking about... It's not a liberal nor conservative issue.... I'm only trying to understand WHAT happened today that caused a cancellation... I'm not a twitter or other social network person... Basically I was simply shocked. If there are guidelines about temps for racing, then I'm offbase here.. I would never wish a hardship on the animals nor humans. Your posts seem to be 99% about politics and that may be the case here... It could very well be, but NYC is certainly one of a rare place in the world! Trying to get some real understanding without foolish words.
