New York's Communist William de Blasio instructed NYC DPW vehicles not to plow NYC’s wealthy Upper East Side neighborhoods
De Blasio ‘getting back at us’ by not plowing: UES residents
William de Blasio has instructed NYC DPW vehicles not to plow NYC’s wealthy Upper East Side neighborhoods.
As of this writing, many neighborhoods still have yet to be plowed and streets remain a mess.
Huge swaths of the city’s wealthiest neighborhood had been not been plowed by early Tuesday evening, leaving 1-percenters out in the cold, according to the city’s own map of snow-plower activity.
It really is a tale of two cities — this time with the tony Upper East Side getting the shaft!
Huge swaths of the city’s wealthiest neighborhood had been not been plowed by early Tuesday evening, leaving 1-percenters out in the cold, according to the city’s own map of snow-plower activity.
“He is trying to get us back. He is very divisive and political,” said writer and Life-long Upper East Sider and mom Molly Jong Fast of Mayor de Blasio.
“By not plowing the Upper East Side, he is saying, ‘I’m not one of them.’ But we have everyone in this area on the Upper East Side. We have rich people, middle class people, and housing projects. We have it all.”
There appeared to be no snow plowing between East 59th and 79th Streets and between Second and Fifth Avenues.
“I can’t believe de Blasio could do this. He is putting everyone in danger,” said Barbara Tamerin, who was using ski poles to get around 81st Street and Lexington Avenue.
“What is he thinking? We’re supposed to get up to a foot of snow and nobody on the Upper East Side is supposed to blink an eye? I can barely get around and I’m on snow shoes! All of the buses are stuck and can’t go anywhere. He’s crazy. We need Mayor Bloomberg back!”
Martin Cisse, 45, who works at a flower shop near 85th and Lex, said he can’t understand why the city would fail to plow the UES.
“De Blasio is trying to hurt the more wealthy people by ignoring us but there’s no logic to that,” Cisse said.
“There are a lot of blue collar working people out here driving trucks and trying to get around too.”
Sanitation Commissioner John Doherty, at an evening press briefing, defended the handling of the Upper East Side — claiming that one spreader had a busted GPS and was not reporting progress to the PlowNYC Web site.
“The GPS was not working,” he said. “Also, traffic created a lot of problems for us in that area.”
At the same press conference de Blasio stood by his performance. “All city agencies are acting [like] usual very, very effectively and in a coordinated fashion.”
Wild Thing's comment...............
Communists sure do hate the well off, just like Obama and his constant push for hate the rich he has done from day one.

If you're wealthy and stay in NY City or NY State, you deserve what happens to you. They're no different than a woman who stays with an abusive husband when she has the means to get out safely and do better for herself.
