Sounds like some of his plans were really bad.. I wouldn't think that
a Mayor could make sweeping enough changes to be that big a problem
but I don't know enough about it there to accuaretly comment.

Here a Premier (think 'Governor' has a fair amount of power but
it never seemed Mayors could do too much other than in a limited
area, and there are lots of controls to get things passed.
Of course I guess the size of the city dictates how 'limited' the
area of influence might be..

Hard to guess what he could do to the NYSE. Something like that
wouldn't seem to be under Mayoral control in any way..
