Bobby's big mad! He has just found out. (NYC)

Robert DeNiro thinks that taxes are to be paid by the other guy.
Bobby thinks he should get some sort of an exemption because of who he is. Sorry, it doesn't work that way. You voted for it. Or if you voted for Cuomo, your party still allowed a system that nominated an Islamic Marxist. FAFO.

He can whine all he wants as long as he pays. The rich should pay more.

And there's where we are in agreement. Taxes should be raised on the super-rich. Warren Buffett says so, and that's enough for me.

Like I say, leftists are generous - with other people’s money.

Anyone have any particulars about this "New York City Public Wealth Tax"?

Does it exist?

Is it a tax on wealth?

Is it a tax on income?

When and how does it kick in and how is it collected?

A random twitter post is lacking in any meaningful detail.

Maybe he can get him one of those sweet tax deal on his home like Jefferies did.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries has been enjoying a tax deal that significantly reduces his property tax bill. The deal, which he co-sponsored and voted for during his time in the New York State Assembly, allows him to pay as little as $213 in property taxes on his $1.2 million Brooklyn condo. This tax abatement program, known as the 421-A abatement, provides property tax breaks over 25 or 35 years in exchange for making at least 20% of the apartments "affordable" for moderate- to low-income residents. The program has been criticized for favoring wealthy developers and tenants, but Jeffries argues that it is a necessary measure to ensure affordability in New York City. Despite his own tax break, Jeffries has been criticized for not paying his fair share in property taxes, especially when compared to the median property tax in New York City, which is over $5,000 per year.

So predictable and pathetic.

These Lefty ASSHOLES love communism….UNTIL IT IS TIME TO PAY.

Do not forget, when John Lennon RELEASED the communist song “IMAGINE”, he was worth over $1 billion in 2025 dollars…singing about NO POSSESSIONS…he did not give all his money away.

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s first big proposal is a bold plan to raise taxes on the city's highest earners by pushing for a two-percentage-point tax increase on income above $1 million.

His incoming administration says this tax move could raise billions a year. He then plans to redirect that revenue into programs the city has struggled to fund for years, including free bus service and major affordable housing initiatives. That projection wouldn't pan out, of course, if millionaires leave the city to avoid the tax.

A consumption tax is the answer.

A consumption tax is the answer.

I agree to a point, but I prefer a flat tax on everybody. Perhaps welfare programs wouldn’t be so popular if even the working poor had to pay for it. A flat tax encourages saving and those who buy luxury goods will pay a hefty tax.

I think bringing the manufacturing base back to the US creating jobs while cutting the size of the welfare state is the only way out of our debt death spiral.

Yes. Penalize those who support the economy.

First things first. We need to hold people accountable for the damage they do. This will fill the government coffers and change the behavior of the people.

It isn't a penalty if you can afford it.

He's a huge flaming asshole.
Hence, he's a Democrat.

 

[hjmick]

Is De Niro somehow under the impression that what he thinks matters? That he is somehow relevant? What a ******* ego.

 

[Woodznutz]

We already pay a consumption tax. It's called the "sales tax".
