Every person that has ever lived and been faced with something they can't afford has probably uttered the same words. And, guess what... as people climb social circles in life and go on to make more and more money, they experience "lifestyle creep" and before you know it, that 80K car that seemed outrageously unnecessary is all of a sudden an accesible possibility, and those 5K rents are no longer ridiculous but within reach, and so and so on. Save the faux outrage and jealousy masquerading as principle... if you could easily afford it, you would likely pay it.

A lot of them are tourist/sightseeing helicopters or private use and definitely not news/police- I used to live in Port Imperial and we heard them often pre Covid, less so during the height of it all, and definitely became more frequent again before we moved out in late 2021
