Lefty Lysistratas
We knew President-elect Donald Trump’s victory would change the Biden administration’s failed insurance policies, nevertheless it’s onerous to think about People’ intercourse lives can be included (“Sure to Don? No to intercourse!” Nov. 9).
Author Georgia Worrell factors out that girls who voted for Vice President Kamala Harris are actually withholding intercourse from their companions as a result of she misplaced.
Conversely, Trump supporters could also be having fun with a renaissance within the bed room.

Gun violence
“NYC teen magazines” describes the 42% enhance in children arrested with weapons in New York (Nov. 11).
Town has essentially the most stringent gun legal guidelines within the nation.
So it’s clear gun-control legal guidelines do nothing to cease unhealthy actors.
Since not too long ago arrived migrants comprise 60-75% of NYPD’s arrests in midtown, it’s not a lot of a leap to see the place the issue lies.
I name on Gov. Hochul and Mayor Adams to work with President-elect Donald Trump to revive legislation and order by eradicating those that come to this nation looking for to steal the American dream as a substitute of incomes it.

Ferry millionaires
Democratic mayoral hopeful Brad Lander demonstrated why New York Metropolis is ferrying in direction of chapter by awarding outrageous retroactive pay packages to Staten Island ferry employees to choose up the endorsement of their union (“Ferry Tales,” Nov. 10).
Ridership on the ferries is round 20 million a 12 months, however working prices have ballooned because of inflated worker salaries, with some staff making seven figures.
No marvel taxpayers are fleeing town in droves as Lander’s “open checkbook” campaigning model will additional drain the municipal trough.
On Wall Road there was a saying: “You could be a bull or a bear, however by no means a pig.”
This concept appears to have been drowned out by the newly-minted millionaire ferry employees and clueless Democratic politicians.

Scent the espresso
The Republican Metropolis Council Member Vickie Paladino’s opinion piece is instructive, however she like many different Republicans assumes that leftist politicians wish to make society higher (“Dems, Wake Up,” PostOpinion, Nov. 9).
Can’t progressives see the mess they’re making with softness on crime, poor public-education outcomes for high-needs college students, drug abuse, criminality and excessive taxation?
These are rational questions, however we’re mistaken to imagine that left progressives care about them.
What they actually care about is energy.
Political correctness is used to acquire and preserve energy.
What’s appropriate at the moment can be incorrect tomorrow.
It’s only a instrument. We make a mistake once we assume that they want to ameliorate society.

Class dismissed
I’m unsure if I learn with extra humor or disappointment that school college students have been afforded a possibility to not attend class after Trump’s victory (“Libs gone mad: Election snowflakes rush to NYC shrinks’ places of work after Trump win,” Nov. 9).
It needs to be necessary that first-year college students learn concerning the Biggest Technology.
I’m certain younger males who lied about their age to enlist and struggle in WWII for this nation would have beloved some protected areas, however the foxholes have been solely so huge.
If at the moment’s college students are our future leaders, God assist us.
