They were hell holes when crime was rampant. When I was growing up all politicians said the same thing. That they were tough on crime. You don’t hear that as much. Politicians are calling for criminal reform. That reform will be the reason crime will rise. And we’ll be back to the hell holes we were in in the 80’s.

Agree with @THE TRUTH IS REAL RADIO TELEVISION. Most decades don't establish a unique identity for the first few years and therefore look mostly unchanged from the end of the previous decade. That was particularly true of the early '80s, but I think it's true of most decades. It's often said that the '60s didn't end until the early '70s. And a show like Leave it to Beaver carried its '50s sensibility three years into the '60s. It's probably not that surprising. Culture is a continuum, and the change of a decade has a fairly minor impact on public sensibilities.

i’m so glad that this documentary is popping up now on UA-cam even though it’s been on there a while… Because when people talk about how they gave Tax break to Donald Trump they forget that New York was in shambles in the late 70s under Mayor beam and under President Carter. The city was a financial no go zone, so you needed in the early 80s to do something to get building investment & that part always gets forgotten. It’s not the best solution in every case but it was at that time

Honestly, this narrator sounds EXACTLY like Eric Idle or one of the other Monty Pythoners in one of their sketch set-ups. I’m just waiting for an older British man dressed in women’s clothes to randomly pop in and give some ridiculous non-sequitur about New York lol
@@MarthaMansbridge I think it has more to do with the time that the British preferred "billion" as a million million, as opposed to a thousand million which is more common now. So the term two thousand million was the only way to say it really.
In the older British way a billion actually meant 10^12, so what you’d call a trillion. In that ‘long’ system it goes up (million, billion, trillion) in millions, not thousands. Billions weren’t used as much then. It’s the same in some other languages btw, which use ‘milliard’ for your ‘short’ billion and ‘billion’ for a million million.

Rich R, maybe you misunderstood. The tax breaks were only for Trump, no other developers, because he threatened and blackmailed 2 city council members, so they caved. The building in question was the former Hyatt Regency on 42nd st. Trump got it tax free, and a guarantee against paying ANY taxes on the property for 30 years. Do you really think a city or a country could survive if NOBODY paid taxes? BTW, Trump later lost the Hyatt in a bad business deal, and sold out. Then he bought the Plaza Hotel at Central Park, paying way too much for it. 4 years later the banks called for his owed money on the building, so he was forced to sell the Plaza to the Japanese. Why not google his actual business failures and successes, and along the way google how many contractors and subs went belly up because Trump never paid them. They had their own bills to pay, employees to pay, families to feed, but T walked away in every bankruptcy and left them destitute.

Perfect video of how Trump changed NY, it was a dying city until Trump made his deal, yes he got a tax break, but the city gained more than the tax break they gave Trump!! This was at a time when city leaders understood economics, unlike today where city leaders believe that investors owe the city instead of understanding that the investors create investments, jobs and economic growth!!!

@@hunter371 hahaha you do realize the Trump tax cuts helped nearly every single American right? 69.1% of all households making $30-50k a year received a tax cut, that's households with one person working or two people working that are making minimum wage. 82% of households making $50-75k a year received a tax cut, even this category will have two earners making just over minimum wage and many that have just one earner making a middle class income. 87% of households making $75-100k a year received a tax cut this is the bread and butter households of America that are considered middle class and nearly all of them are keeping more of their hard earned money thanks to Trump's tax cuts. Here's a link to these facts if you need it www.nytimes.com/2019/04/14/business/economy/income-tax-cut.html Also before you try to say these tax cuts are going to bankrupt the US here's some more facts. Under Trump's tax cuts the IRS brought in more tax revenue than any previous year in US history, how could that be possible you might ask? Because more Americans are working today than anytime in US history, businesses and corporations are profiting more and therefore paying more overall taxes even though their tax rate was reduced. This is how you fix our economy, stop overtaxing the citizens and businesses and let the market soar. Would you rather have 10% of a huge pizza or 20% of a small pizza? That's how tax rates and revenues work, over taxing hurts unemployment and causes stagnation. Here's a source on the facts of the IRS bringing in more tax revenue than any other point in US history www.investors.com/politics/editorials/trump-tax-cuts-federal-revenues-deficits/ Sorry about the story the mainstream media pushed on you and you unfortunately believed.
@@OneNationUnderGod. Haha you do realize that the majority of the tax cut went to corporations and the top tax bracket right? Let's do an apples to apples comparison without any of the smoke and mirror tricks Republicans relied on to develop this bill in secret and pass without any debate in the chamber: "The biggest benefits, though, go to the top 1 percent, who are projected to receive an average tax break of $62,000 in 2018, while the middle one-fifth of income earners got an average tax cut of $1,090 - about $20 per biweekly paycheck." Damn! The rich really *are* getting richer off this tax break, and middle class Americans are seeing a drop in the bucket that in their tax savings. Some may not even believe they are seeing a cut that savings are so minimal. To whit: " An April 2019 NBC/Wall Street Journal poll this month showed that just 17 percent of Americans believe their taxes have been cut." Wait did I read that right??? Just 17% believe their taxes were actually cut? That means that the cuts were *so* insignificant to the *majority* of Americans that something like 80% don't believe they've actually been lowered. Sad! We're not done just yet, because one of the false narratives pushed by Republicans (and regurgitated like a good sheep here by you) is that this tax cut will be revenue neutral; it would, im effect, pay for itself. Do governments lie? Do people believe those lies? I lived in NY after 9/11 when the government said the air was safe to breath in downtown Manhattan, so you can guess what I believe. Onto the facts! "The U.S. budget shortfall grew by 17 percent to $779 billion in fiscal year 2018, which the Congressional Budget Office has said was partly a consequence of the tax law. Along with additional spending that’s been signed into law, the CBO projects the deficit will surpass $1 trillion by 2020." *Yikes!* That's a *huge* deficit being created by this Administration for the sake of helping out the rich and corporations most of all. 17% growth of the deficit and counting isn't something that can just pay for itself because some rich folks saved on taxes. Right? "Adjusting for inflation, corporate, personal income and payroll tax receipts fell by $83 billion in 2018, from the year before." Eeek. That's not good. I thought you said revenue had increased? Were you not adjusting for inflation? You weren't? Aw then you were doing the smoke and mirrors game the GOP loves to deploy! Wait we still have to cover this revenue shortfall after the tax cuts a bit more. "The uncomfortable truth for the bill’s supporters is that the tax cuts are substantially contributing to a widening federal budget deficit, which now appears on track to top $1 trillion this year. If growth fades in the coming years - as many economists believe it will - the cuts could exacerbate the deficit even more." So, no new growth, and a bigger increase in the gap between the rich and the poor. Who would have thought Trump and the GOP would've been for such public policy?

@@hunter371 one of the main reasons people didn't know they received a tax cut is because they didn't receive a much bigger tax return and the reason for that is their tax cut came in the form of a smaller withholding on their payroll tax. An extra $50 per paycheck isn't that noticable but it adds up to over $1200 a year. Another big reason people don't believe they received much if any tax cuts is because the mainstream media has a 92% negative coverage rate of President Trump www.investors.com/politics/editorials/media-trump-hatred-coverage/ Guess what tax revenue for 2019 is going to set another record, we don't have a tax revenue problem in the US we have a spending problem. Much of the increased spending happened under Obama and getting Congress to cut back is going to take decades. There's establishment politicians on both sides but Trump is doing the best he can, Obama left our military badly underfunded in need of new equipment. Our soldiers hadn't received a pay increase in years, since Trump took office they've received two pay raises. The top 1% already pay over 37% of US tax revenue and the top 5% pay over 58%, how much more do you expect? taxfoundation.org/summary-latest-federal-income-tax-data-2018-update/ The top 10% pay over 70% www.ntu.org/foundation/tax-page/who-pays-income-taxes Why are you surprised when a tax cut happens the top 10% receive a bigger tax break? They already pay the overwhelming majority?!?! You can't expect the bottom 25% to receive a tax break when none of them currently pay taxes, you can't cut from nothing and expect something LMFAO

I'm talking about his infrastructure work in NYC during the 70s. Sit down.
I love how the early 80s were basically an extension of the 70s. The massive change in fashion and music happened from late 1983 onwards.
Lou Coconut. You're right. Regarding music I think it's mainly due to the passage from analogic to digital.
Agree with @THE TRUTH IS REAL RADIO TELEVISION. Most decades don't establish a unique identity for the first few years and therefore look mostly unchanged from the end of the previous decade. That was particularly true of the early '80s, but I think it's true of most decades. It's often said that the '60s didn't end until the early '70s. And a show like Leave it to Beaver carried its '50s sensibility three years into the '60s. It's probably not that surprising. Culture is a continuum, and the change of a decade has a fairly minor impact on public sensibilities.
decades are social constructions
It happens a lot, the 90's didn't die until the late 00's.

In the older British way a billion actually meant 10^12, so what you’d call a trillion. In that ‘long’ system it goes up (million, billion, trillion) in millions, not thousands. Billions weren’t used as much then.
It’s the same in some other languages btw, which use ‘milliard’ for your ‘short’ billion and ‘billion’ for a million million.

Rich R, maybe you misunderstood. The tax breaks were only for Trump, no other developers, because he threatened and blackmailed 2 city council members, so they caved. The building in question was the former Hyatt Regency on 42nd st. Trump got it tax free, and a guarantee against paying ANY taxes on the property for 30 years. Do you really think a city or a country could survive if NOBODY paid taxes? BTW, Trump later lost the Hyatt in a bad business deal, and sold out.
Then he bought the Plaza Hotel at Central Park, paying way too much for it. 4 years later the banks called for his owed money on the building, so he was forced to sell the Plaza to the Japanese. Why not google his actual business failures and successes, and along the way google how many contractors and subs went belly up because Trump never paid them. They had their own bills to pay, employees to pay, families to feed, but T walked away in every bankruptcy and left them destitute.

@@hunter371 hahaha you do realize the Trump tax cuts helped nearly every single American right? 69.1% of all households making $30-50k a year received a tax cut, that's households with one person working or two people working that are making minimum wage. 82% of households making $50-75k a year received a tax cut, even this category will have two earners making just over minimum wage and many that have just one earner making a middle class income.
87% of households making $75-100k a year received a tax cut this is the bread and butter households of America that are considered middle class and nearly all of them are keeping more of their hard earned money thanks to Trump's tax cuts. Here's a link to these facts if you need it www.nytimes.com/2019/04/14/business/economy/income-tax-cut.html
Also before you try to say these tax cuts are going to bankrupt the US here's some more facts. Under Trump's tax cuts the IRS brought in more tax revenue than any previous year in US history, how could that be possible you might ask? Because more Americans are working today than anytime in US history, businesses and corporations are profiting more and therefore paying more overall taxes even though their tax rate was reduced. This is how you fix our economy, stop overtaxing the citizens and businesses and let the market soar. Would you rather have 10% of a huge pizza or 20% of a small pizza? That's how tax rates and revenues work, over taxing hurts unemployment and causes stagnation. Here's a source on the facts of the IRS bringing in more tax revenue than any other point in US history www.investors.com/politics/editorials/trump-tax-cuts-federal-revenues-deficits/
Sorry about the story the mainstream media pushed on you and you unfortunately believed.
@@OneNationUnderGod. Haha you do realize that the majority of the tax cut went to corporations and the top tax bracket right? Let's do an apples to apples comparison without any of the smoke and mirror tricks Republicans relied on to develop this bill in secret and pass without any debate in the chamber:
"The biggest benefits, though, go to the top 1 percent, who are projected to receive an average tax break of $62,000 in 2018, while the middle one-fifth of income earners got an average tax cut of $1,090 - about $20 per biweekly paycheck."
Damn! The rich really *are* getting richer off this tax break, and middle class Americans are seeing a drop in the bucket that in their tax savings. Some may not even believe they are seeing a cut that savings are so minimal. To whit:
" An April 2019 NBC/Wall Street Journal poll this month showed that just 17 percent of Americans believe their taxes have been cut."
Wait did I read that right??? Just 17% believe their taxes were actually cut? That means that the cuts were *so* insignificant to the *majority* of Americans that something like 80% don't believe they've actually been lowered. Sad!
We're not done just yet, because one of the false narratives pushed by Republicans (and regurgitated like a good sheep here by you) is that this tax cut will be revenue neutral; it would, im effect, pay for itself. Do governments lie? Do people believe those lies? I lived in NY after 9/11 when the government said the air was safe to breath in downtown Manhattan, so you can guess what I believe. Onto the facts!
"The U.S. budget shortfall grew by 17 percent to $779 billion in fiscal year 2018, which the Congressional Budget Office has said was partly a consequence of the tax law. Along with additional spending that’s been signed into law, the CBO projects the deficit will surpass $1 trillion by 2020."
*Yikes!* That's a *huge* deficit being created by this Administration for the sake of helping out the rich and corporations most of all. 17% growth of the deficit and counting isn't something that can just pay for itself because some rich folks saved on taxes. Right?
"Adjusting for inflation, corporate, personal income and payroll tax receipts fell by $83 billion in 2018, from the year before."
Eeek. That's not good. I thought you said revenue had increased? Were you not adjusting for inflation? You weren't? Aw then you were doing the smoke and mirrors game the GOP loves to deploy! Wait we still have to cover this revenue shortfall after the tax cuts a bit more.
"The uncomfortable truth for the bill’s supporters is that the tax cuts are substantially contributing to a widening federal budget deficit, which now appears on track to top $1 trillion this year. If growth fades in the coming years - as many economists believe it will - the cuts could exacerbate the deficit even more."
So, no new growth, and a bigger increase in the gap between the rich and the poor. Who would have thought Trump and the GOP would've been for such public policy?

@@hunter371 one of the main reasons people didn't know they received a tax cut is because they didn't receive a much bigger tax return and the reason for that is their tax cut came in the form of a smaller withholding on their payroll tax. An extra $50 per paycheck isn't that noticable but it adds up to over $1200 a year. Another big reason people don't believe they received much if any tax cuts is because the mainstream media has a 92% negative coverage rate of President Trump www.investors.com/politics/editorials/media-trump-hatred-coverage/
Guess what tax revenue for 2019 is going to set another record, we don't have a tax revenue problem in the US we have a spending problem. Much of the increased spending happened under Obama and getting Congress to cut back is going to take decades. There's establishment politicians on both sides but Trump is doing the best he can, Obama left our military badly underfunded in need of new equipment. Our soldiers hadn't received a pay increase in years, since Trump took office they've received two pay raises.
The top 1% already pay over 37% of US tax revenue and the top 5% pay over 58%, how much more do you expect? taxfoundation.org/summary-latest-federal-income-tax-data-2018-update/
The top 10% pay over 70% www.ntu.org/foundation/tax-page/who-pays-income-taxes
Why are you surprised when a tax cut happens the top 10% receive a bigger tax break? They already pay the overwhelming majority?!?! You can't expect the bottom 25% to receive a tax break when none of them currently pay taxes, you can't cut from nothing and expect something LMFAO
@@OneNationUnderGod. So you don't acknowledge that adjusted for inflation we had DECREASED revenues last year, but you DO acknowledge that the wealthy were the biggest beneficiaries of the tax bill.
