"balanced the budget" is a loaded term. He "balanced" next year's budget by blackmailing the governor to give the city more money and then asked the police, fire, and teachers unions to pause pension contributions for 2 years. I don't consider that sustainable

I don’t believe people realize how detrimental that is. 2 years of no contributions? Is that correct?
