Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Viragosa, speaking about the need for Universal health care in the City of Los Angeles, made the following statement on Tuesday April 7th:
“Let’s not forget that we have the highest number of impoverished of any city in the United States of America, highest number of homeless of any city in the United States of America, highest number of uninsured of any city in the United States of America”
I find it interesting that these “data points” were not discussed during the the recent City of Los Angeles Election, in which the mayor was re-elected by a slim margin, with an embarrassingly low voter turnout. I also find it interesting that the news media is not jumping all over this major gaff! Perhaps this will become a news item when the mayor pursues the governorship? We will have to wait and see.
