How much does it cost you to live in your house? If you are a renter, the answer to that question is fairly straightforward (although if your rent includes a gym membership and heat, it is not clearcut what the simple cost of occupying your place is).
But suppose you are an owner. What is it costing you every month or every year to live in your house? The truth is, you don't know with a great deal of precision, and neither does anyone else.
There are two ways to look at the issue.…Pretty much like the right wing went after Clinton and Obama. Now it's De Blasio's turn.
More divisiveness that is ripping the US apart and hemorrhaging American soft power on the world stage.
