Still blows my mind the union that represents the majority of city employees endorsed Eric Adams. The union bosses must have gotten quite the pay off

The unions trying to paint this is a necessity and a win is fucking pathetic. Whatever we think of the pension system, these people were promised this and they are on a fixed income. New out of pocket costs for medical procedures (which happen more often at old age) and making it harder to find doctors is outright cruel. Medicare Advantage is a fucking scam.
