Lionel delivers an entertaining and informative look at the forces driving New York City toward "economic euthanasia". Explore why the noise of ambition has turned into the "whine" of a city choking on slogans and leftist virtue signaling. Lionel tackles the insanity of progressive policies, including the rent freeze (which "freezes growth") and the promise of "free everything," noting that someone, usually the middle-class New Yorker, always pays. The show critiques "reimagining policing," arguing you "cannot hug away homicide" or mediate a felony, a return to the failed approaches of the 70s. The discussion unpacks how glorifying dependence, outlawing incentive, and turning government into the parent leads to worse crime statistics, crumbling tenements, and a historic exodus of wealth and talent. This episode insists that compassion without calculation is chaos and demands common sense and reality in a city where government has replaced guts and backbone.
