@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.
@nf3xn @HakeemG @BruceMirken @QasimRashid this guy's a troll. He responds to anything to do with Zohran with bad faith attacks.

Nobody posted that here. I heard that people on the right are trying to push this.
And I have my reply to them. Please I really do want them to keep saying it so we can keep doubling the tax rate.
Billionaire Declares That "Tax the Rich" Is Hate Speech That Offends Him Horribly
Billionaire real estate mogul Steve Roth recently declared that "tax the rich" is just as bad as the nastiest racial slur.

Treat sycophant billionaires just like Trump treats sycophants. Power and money are the only things they understand -

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @notyourfanboy @QasimRashid that screed has so many winners.
“I consider the phrase ‘tax the rich’ [...] to be just as hateful as [...] the phrase from the ‘river to the sea,'”

@glnfld @nf3xn @BruceMirken @QasimRashid
Are the Guardian and Gothamist trolls too, because they said the same thing. Are you suggesting Mamdani didn't cut housing and education funding?
Mamdani pledged affordable New York housing in his campaign. How is that going?
Mayor’s decision to appeal court order that the city must expand its housing voucher program has angered advocates for the homeless

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.

Yup
"it is the 1 percent that makes 50 percent of New York’s income taxes"
Time to keep doubling that tax rate

Rage bait? When you tell the truth about Mamdani's education and housing cuts.

@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.

Thanks JoeWo
@joewoJeff Bezos thinks people are
‘vilifying the rich.’ Bro, you're
one of the richest people
on earth and 1/3 of your
warehouse workers rely on
government assistance for
basic needs like food and rent.
You ARE the villain.

I like Mamdani for the most part, but I'm doing to him what his base does to other Democrats.
