George C. Parker (1860-1936), a native New Yorker, was notorious for selling NYC landmarks to unwitting immigrants.
His greatest con was selling the Brooklyn Bridge. Legend claims that he sold it at least twice a week. He did sell it several times including at least once for $50,000! The new owner would be discovered he was the victim of a con when the New York police officers would stop the “new owners” from setting up toll booths in the middle of the bridge. (nycwalks.com)
Stacey Abrams serves as the modern day George C. Parker. She deserves accolades for successfully championing the ‘get out the vote’ operation in Georgia to elect two Democrat Senators. She registered many new voters with the promise that a vote for the Democrats would result in a Senate majority that would care about them and look out for their best interests.
But just like the unwitting immigrants who bought the Brooklyn Bridge from the smooth talking George Parker, Georgians will pay a lot and get nothing in return. Georgians are effectively buying the massive debt of NYC’s mismanaged government and union pension bailouts. And ala the great Billy Mays, “that’s not all!” They will also get to the pay for the same largess from California, Illinois’ (Chicago) and other Democrat cities.
The only silver lining for Georgia is that they have subjected the rest of taxpaying America to join them in this incestuous bailout.
