Really wondering how much organized crime has to do with this.

Really wondering how much organized crime has to do with this.
- fennecfoxen 6y agoThe relationship in question is mostly not criminal, but rather involves the unions in question supporting the political career of their people in Albany. For instance, when the governor suddenly changed the plan for the L-Pocalypse tunnel repair over the holidays, after chatting with some of his buddies, undermining the MTA chief (who, if I recall correctly, first heard about it from the press conference?) The new plan involves fewer outside contractors and more union labor. (Yes, Albany, because the MTA is run by the state instead of the city, mostly to limit accountability.)
- baggy_trough 6y agoWhy not both? Is it truly known not to have anything to do with organized crime?
