Abe Hirschfeld on Technology

2004 former Builders Party Senate challenger (NY)


Build the Second Avenue Subway, despite lawyers

Today, we have the greatest building technology the world has ever known and yet we cannot build the Second Avenue Subway. "They built the subway system in 5 years 90 years ago with picks and shovels!" states Abe. With today's new technology and powerful earth-moving equipment we should have had the Second Avenue Subway built many years ago." Abe states he could do the job in one or two years. He contends that the reason it is not built today is because of the special interest groups and their lawyers. "Lawyers seek only to create chaos, not order," states Abe.
