Right, he just wasn’t smart enough to take the right things. It was more important for him to be “seen in L.A. today” than to worry about tomorrow. Same goes for the way he ran the city.[/quote]
Agreed. I have no idea how he managed to remain mayor for so long. If he truly is personally broke, that explains why L.A. is such a mess. It’s always seemed like he was more into the “celebrity” of being a mayor, rather than committing himself to taking care of the city and its inhabitants.
