    Tax the rich progressively… becoming that rich can only be done by means of the infrastructure and resources available in society of which you are part of. Profiting off that means paying back. It is really that simple.

    And not paying back simply is immoral, antisocial and criminal, it’s stealing…

      This is what happens when you elect a mayor for the people, not the corporations. We need more of this.

          Didn't Zohran sit out the 24 election? Didn't he just cut a billion dollars from education and housing? That's a no from me.

          New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani will cut school and homeless programs to balance budget

          Less than a year after his election, Mamdani is moving to implement austerity to meet the legal requirements of a budget “balanced” on behalf of the bond markets and the financial aristocracy.

              Considering how the profits that corporations make are subsidized by the governments who pay the difference between minimum wage and a living wage, they've been looting the governments' (and thus the people's) coffers a very, very long time.

              Taxing the rich isn't turning that equitable, it's just reducing how much they're allowed to continue to steal. By some minor amount.

                @QasimRashid Jeff Bezos thinks Mamdani is 'demonizing' billionaires. The guy is one of the richest people on earth and many of his workers rely on government assistance for basic things like food and housing. Bezos is THE demon.

                  这回应真是绝了,Mamdani 市长这招太漂亮了,直接用罚款回击 Bezos 的抱怨。希望更多民选官员能这样站在普通人这边。

                      @HakeemG @BruceMirken @QasimRashid Completely false. $4 billion in capital for affordable housing, $500 million for NYCHA renovations. His final $124.7B budget increases overall education and homeless services spending via new taxes and $8B state aid. The $12 billion deficit is gone.

                      Getting it done instead of talking a lot which some 'Democrats' like Hakeem Jeffries do. I think even holds the record lol.

                        Neoliberal capitalism has turned the economical motions in current society into a monstrosity. The current winner takes all mentality is simply not just and not sustainable. A few of the ultrarich are sucking up wealths that could be used to feed, educate and cure the masses indefinitely, and they are by not giving back refusing to take action, This is unsustainable, unethical and immoral and yes it is criminal.

                              Nice spin, yes he is increasing education spending, but by less than planned and he is delaying mandated state reductions in class sizes.

                              “It’s a classic example of a political promise made and a promise broken and really a betrayal of the homeless and unhoused community in New York who took him at his word,” said Christine Quinn, president and CEO of WIN, the city’s largest shelter provider.

                              Just a moment...

                              Mayor’s decision to appeal court order that the city must expand its housing voucher program has angered advocates for the homeless

                                  The correct reply to “ taxing billionaires is equal to hate speech” is to double the tax every time they open their mouths. We can do this all day until we get to a 90 or 95% marginal tax rate for people like him.

                                    @GhostOnTheHalfShell that still leaves them $50 million, we need to go to an uncapped tax and they can only keep the same as the workers make

                                    flip the script

                                      Fundamentally wealth must be taxed much more than work. I would like to suggest work should not be taxed at all.

                                      And I didn’t say when the 95% marginal rate started either, did I?

                                        The correct reply to “ taxing billionaires is equal to hate speech” is to double the tax every time they open their mouths. We can do this all day until we get to a 90 or 95% marginal tax rate for people like him.

                                          @HakeemG @BruceMirken @QasimRashid Completely false. $4 billion in capital for affordable housing, $500 million for NYCHA renovations. His final $124.7B budget increases overall education and homeless services spending via new taxes and $8B state aid. The $12 billion deficit is gone.

                                          Getting it done instead of talking a lot which some 'Democrats' like Hakeem Jeffries do. I think even holds the record lol.
