Who Needs Politics? By HH

3/8/2013

Picture
The word Politics is derived from the Greek word Politika, or affairs of the state. But the best explanation of what politics really is comes from Political scientist Harold Lasswell, who defined politics as "who gets what, when, and how."

It seems that for the last ten years, and especially the last five, the WHO gets has gone from the taxpayers to the VAAD, SPECIAL INTERESTS, AND COMMITTEEMEN. The WHAT has become LAND AND MONEY, LOTS OF MONEY. WHEN has become so often that nothing else is able to get accomplished. And of course HOW has always been UNDER THE TABLE. 

Now Steven Langert has taken the corruption to an entirely new level. Admitting that he is a developer, actively building town homes that he never disclosed publicly, while influencing the zoning board, and attempting to hide his involvement in said projects under shell corporations. His statement on the Radio when asked if he owned any properties was that he had always been open that he owned properties, yet only minutes before he was saying that we can't tell developers that they shouldn't be allowed to build without mentioning that he is a builder! 

I am once again publicly asking that Steven Langert resign due to his ongoing blatant conflicts of interest and actual illegal behavior. Yes I know, there is someone else on the committee just as bad as you. His face turned bright red when I mentioned public disclosure of investment properties if you are a committee member. The time has come to get rid of politics and for all the takers to get off the Committee and allow the town to be managed responsibly.

Thank You
Harold Herskowitz

Get copies of the disclosure form all township administration must file (by law) every year. Those statements must disclose all properties they have an interest in, including properties owned by spouses. If those prop ties you refer to are not listed, send the info to the DCA, State ethics board and attorney general. They HAVE to act on it

I find it funny that Friday there were six comments now only three?? It seems rabbi (sarcastic) h h puts up and takes down what he doesn't want people to see?? Maybe these so called facts which we haven't see a drop of proof aren't facts??

It's nice to see Cranky revert to the plural pronoun "we" when he criticizes Hershel's exposure of corruption.I wonder which constituency he's referring to??? Cranky should monitor his own township activies with the same vigilance he uses to monitor this site.

I have nothing to do with the township but h h keeps making accusations without bringing any proof. A lot more people myself included would have a lot more respect for h h if he could prove what he says.

Dear cranky,
Steve admitted publicly that he has property that is under dee looney for town houses. Property that went through zoning changes. Property that homeowners in the area fought to stop those zoning changes. He helped get the zoning changed and never disclosed publicly or on disclosure statements that he owned the property. Now he says he was always up front about it. I don't need your respect but I would appreciate if you would stop spouting absolute stupidity. What more proof do you need? He finally admitted to owning the property. It was hard to prove because all his properties are in other people's names or in corporate names. Transparent indeed.

I take down comments that are rude or talk about issues that have nothing to do with the discussion at hand. I don't think seeing your comment that I support gay marriage ? Has what to do with corruption. And yes I would wish you all the best when you find your life partner, but support you? I'd rather give my extra money to special needs children. Either way you would benefit

Hh has taken down many of my comments. They were not insulting. Just anti hh tactics. Hh is afraid of anyone who doesnt agree with him. Just look back at the last comments to see how he demeans posters. Special needs children? Indeed.

Mr H h. I only commented about gay marriage because somebody wrote that you support it and I questioned him how he knows that because I never heard you or saw you write about it.

And as far as the corruption goes if he said play the recording for all to hear and have him removed from office but just name calling wont get the people in Lkwd anywhere.
As far as your money trust me Mr h I don't need it but thanx for the offer. Maybe you could give to to the people at tent city whom you love so dearly.

Hey Cranky, You asked for it so you got it. You want the recording, here you go. Check out this link for the recording, go to part 2 and at 15:42 is where you can hear Steve admit to it.

what do think would happen if he got audited by the IRS they have a place on the IRS site where you can report corrupt tax papers.WHERE does LANGERT hide all his payoff cash.he probably has it buried in land purchases.
