Election 2019

Letter: Mark Grzymski for Town Coucncil 

By Timothy Gallagher | October 17, 2019

As a lifelong registered Republican, the time has never been more important to put aside party affiliations and seek out the best candidates for each and every role in local, state and federal government. Our system of government is bankrupt and broken. Fiscal deficits beyond belief, ballooning government debt that will never be repaid, abominable policy choices and a dramatic amount of “kicking the can down the road” has led the country and the state into uncharted fiscal waters. The effects of the incredible amount if irresponsibility from the federal and state government have come home to roost in New Canaan and more broadly in Fairfield County. 

However, looking deeper and specifically at New Canaan there is a more local and pressing issue—Wall Street. Regardless of your view of Wall Street and financial services more broadly (including PE funds, hedge funds, asset managers, attorneys and all the middle office and back office support) the impact of the gutting of Financial Services has taken a dramatic toll on New Canaan.
