Firstly, I am happy that the firehouses will not be closed since fire protection is indeed the most important protection service of our city, providing emergency EMS ENT services, fire protection and emergency coordination and it is so valuable. I do feel that the cuts to the city schools are shameful in light of the fact that the poor and the minority groups as well as immigrants and middle class children unable to afford private school education will be deprived of educational services and extracurricular activities. Children are our nation's future and we must train and educate well so that they will become good citizens and leaders for tomorrow. I feel that it is an awful, immature travesty that occurred when there was the coup takeover by the Republicans of the state senate. In New Jersey, this situation occurred when there was a tie and no majority and it worked out well having both parties share leadership. The state senators must display a level of maturity and act in a manner that is far above that of ordinary citizens and they are our role models and inspiration. Their childish manner shows that they may not be capable of being re-elected again. There are so many bills being passed by the state Assembly that must be signed by the senate and by the governor that affects our city and state and this behavior is deplorable. All must realize that they are working for the better and good of our city and state. Political nonsense must be set aside and work must be done before adjournment time. This attitude must not continue and if so our children and voters will be turned off as to the idea of smooth running law making bodies. Let us call our lawmakers to pass S2237, in order to maintain Rent Stabilization laws. It is awful and deplorable, dismaying and disappointing to realize that in the future if rents rise above $2,000 a month that people will no longer be protected under rent-stabilization laws. Affordable housing is not a luxury or a treat but a need and shelter is indeed the most important basic human needs. There is so much stress in our world and city and state and nation and nobody has to worry about being evicted or unable to pay the rent. Let us call our lawmakers. Lastly, I believe that Mayor Bloomberg is doing a fine job of running our city, but the handling [of] the Meals-On-Wheels situation was not done correctly. The senior centers used to take care of meal delivery in their neighborhoods and have social workers and delivery people who were interested in the welfare of the senior citizens. I believe that Father's Day is every day since we honor our fathers according to the Ten Commandments. Special days are commercialization. Flag Day is also important and the flag seems not to be such an important part of our society. Unfortunately thousands of young men and women fought under the banner of our nation and preserved its liberty and freedom and justice for all. Let us honor flag day as well as parades and special days that do not have the same patriotic meaning as our flag.
