Delaying pensions= he didn't balance the budget.
He's deferring it for others to balance in the future.
Impressive achievement for the mooks, but the same old shit, really.
He took a $12.4b deficit that Adams had deferred to him and deferred $2.3b, solving the rest.
As you said... NYC is $2.3 billion in the red. So, it's not really balanced, as I said.
Eh, better than defering the 100% that Adams had defered to him, or even more. He's, in principleM only deferring 20%... that's a huge decrease...
