Michael NannyBloomberg said they're not qualified to get real jobs.
The circus has returned to Albany.
The man known in some parts as "El Bloombito" took out his rapier to cut state politicians down to size with a jab only a self-made billionaire could fire off, CBS 2′s Marcia Kramer reported Friday.
"The average politician who has to make policy on things that influence our lives, our kids' lives, our future, would they ever get a job in the private sector making policy on big things? No, not a chance," Bloomberg said.
After a week of almost non-stop corruption revelations, including charges that Bronx Assemblyman Eric Stevenson took bribes to write a bill to help his friends, Bloomberg also included Gov. Andrew
SonnyCuomo in his revulsion of all things Albany, implying that one of the things that aids corruption is the practice of the governor sending politicians something called a "message of necessity" so a bill can pass quickly, without anyone having a the chance to study it.
"Why can't you give it time? Well, the answer is they don't want anybody to see it. That's the only explanation," Bloomberg said.
