      Wrong. The BS that Trump's tax breaks caused people to burn down their homes was pure BS. Trump's developments generated far more tax revenue for New York that the amount he got in tax abatements to build those properties. Trump literally brought New York out of bankruptcy.

      Agree with @THE TRUTH IS REAL RADIO TELEVISION. Most decades don't establish a unique identity for the first few years and therefore look mostly unchanged from the end of the previous decade. That was particularly true of the early '80s, but I think it's true of most decades. It's often said that the '60s didn't end until the early '70s. And a show like Leave it to Beaver carried its '50s sensibility three years into the '60s. It's probably not that surprising. Culture is a continuum, and the change of a decade has a fairly minor impact on public sensibilities.

      Rich R, maybe you misunderstood. The tax breaks were only for Trump, no other developers, because he threatened and blackmailed 2 city council members, so they caved. The building in question was the former Hyatt Regency on 42nd st. Trump got it tax free, and a guarantee against paying ANY taxes on the property for 30 years. Do you really think a city or a country could survive if NOBODY paid taxes? BTW, Trump later lost the Hyatt in a bad business deal, and sold out.
      Then he bought the Plaza Hotel at Central Park, paying way too much for it. 4 years later the banks called for his owed money on the building, so he was forced to sell the Plaza to the Japanese. Why not google his actual business failures and successes, and along the way google how many contractors and subs went belly up because Trump never paid them. They had their own bills to pay, employees to pay, families to feed, but T walked away in every bankruptcy and left them destitute.
