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

      @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.

      @nf3xn @BruceMirken @QasimRashid

      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.

          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.

              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?

                                    Jeff Bezos went on TV to whine about Zohran Mamdani to stop demonizing billionaires and the very next day Mayor Mamdani responded by forcing Amazon to pay $9M in fines accrued by Amazon delivery trucks for illegally idling and blocking NYC traffic.

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

                                    @QasimRashid Curiously fining Amazon delivery trucks reminds me of a story I heard about the Stoneman Meadow Riots in Yosmite in 1970. There was a guy - Berkeley grad student as I recall - who was working as a ranger over the summer. At one point the FBI parked cars illegally as part of a crackdown. He grinned and said, "I've never written a ticket before!" and proceeded to ticket the FBI. No idea of how accurate it is, but that is funny.
