California Today: Why Does It Cost So Much to Live in California?  (The New York Times, 2/15/2017)
The research behind the story comes from a pair of economists who tried to figure out how much of a home’s cost comes from land-use regulation. The paper argues that most of the difference is caused by regulatory hurdles like design and environmental reviews that can add years to a project’s timeline and suppress the overall housing supply. The result is overpayment on a grand scale for the few homes that do get built. Their figures are theoretical, and people are sure to disagree with them.

Mr. de Blasio, who is running for re-election, said he had seen the vermin running around the public park outside Gracie Mansion. More than 10,000 complaints have come in so far this year.

Original 1/11/2014 post, "The George Washington Bridge Scandal: Let's Go Back to September 2013", starts here.

From Retiring Guy's postcard collection

Bridge Jam's Cause a Mystery. (The Wall Street Journal, 9/17/2013)

Here are the facts as they are set forth in this article.
  1. Access lanes to the George Washington Bridge in Fort Lee, New Jersey (upper left section of postcard) reduced from 3 to 1.
  2. Fort Lee police and elected officials were not notified of the lane closures.
  3. No public announcement was made about the lane closures
  4. The official explanation:  The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is conducting a traffic study.
  5. Some high-ranking Port Authority officials were not aware of this "study".
  6. The lane closures were in place from Monday morning to Thursday morning, September 9-12. 2013.
  7. Port Authority Executive Director Patrick Foye ordered the lanes reopened due to public safety concerns.
  8. The lane closures resulted in "total gridlock", as described by Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich.
  9. Speculation arose that the lane closures might be retribution for Sokolich, a Democrat, not publicly endorsing Republican Governor Chris Christie in his re-elected bid.  (Quote:  Kevin Roberts, a spokesman for the Christie campaign, said that any notion that Mr. Sokolich faced retribution for not endorsing the governor was "crazy.")

What's missing from this list is any reaction from Governor Christie himself.

Don't you think, based on the traffic nightmare that resulted, that any engaged leader in his right mind would have interceded, ordering an immediate end to the "study" and offering an apology to everyone who was inconvenienced?

But Chris Christie, as we have learned, is a different kind of leader, and Kate Zernike counts the way.  ("Stories Add Up as Bully Image Trails Christie", The New York Times, 12/24/2013)

All quoted from Trump’s Cabinet, With a Prod, Extols the ‘Blessing’ of Serving Him.  (The New York Times, 6/12/2017)
Seeking constant admiration, praise and approval is a symptom of a narcissistic personality.   So it went on Monday in the Cabinet Room of the White House, as Mr. Trump transformed a routine meeting of senior members of his government into a mood-boosting, ego-stroking display of support for himself and his agenda. While the president never explicitly asked to be praised, Mr. Pence set the worshipful tone, and Mr. Trump made it clear he liked what he heard.

Welcome to Trump's FDA: Facilitating Device Approval



Reported in F.D.A. Deal Would Relax Rules on Reporting Medical Device Problems.  (The New York Times, 7/11/2017)
But consumer advocates point to recent problems where initial reports of device malfunctions did not involve any injuries, but later evidence — sometimes additional devices showing flaws or reports indicating patients were harmed — began to surface. They pointed to cardiac defibrillators that ran out of batteries; the power morcellator, designed for laparoscopic surgery to remove uterine fibroids, which spread cancer through patients’ bodies; a type of breast implant that is linked to a rare cancer; and the superbug-bearing duodenoscope, whose design flaws made it virtually impossible to disinfect.
