Watching New York Destroy Themselves Will Be Entertaining, but There's Only One Problem

[toobfreak]

What's going to happen when the people who voted Mandini into power flee NYC and start voting in other states?

I'm not convinced that any of his voters will be fleeing; I think those fleeing in horror will be all the sensible and business leaders, police, etc., who not only DIDN'T vote for him but stand to suffer and be held to pay for all of Mamdani's nonsense. NYC is in for some hard times ahead both for many of the people and entrepreneurs, unfortunately, this will also be bad for all of NY state as well as the rest of the country as well.

The only people who really stand to benefit from Mamdani's inclusion are the illegals, the foreigners, muslims and criminals.

He ran on a platform of "freebies", Stann...something that everyone needs right up until they figure out that you were lying to them about someone ELSE paying for them!
Perfect example of what I'm saying? Look at Brandon Johnson doubling people's property taxes to pay for HIS give-a-ways! He told them that the rich and corporations would be paying for it and now they got a dose of reality in the mail.
That will be NYC and I'll be here telling you I told you so!

Freebies , you're right only the super rich should have those. Extended services in these times is what people need , ALL people except the super rich. They already stole these things from the rest of the public. Wake up already.the whole economy is changing. Brick and mortar buildings are no longer needed. We have a glut of them . It is worse to refurbish and repurpose them as senior centers and youth care centers. Most working parents need these things. Even if you don't. Stop being so selfish. Government of the people , by the people and for the people ; that's what it's suppose to be. Wake up already , you've been duped. Quit being a slave. Americans are better than that. We can ALL prosper or we can all have even greater disparity. It's a choice. Make the right one.

We can all prosper? That's what Communists always try to sell the gullible, Stann! Sorry but I'm too experienced to buy that bullshit! There will always be a ruling class and you're the "dupe" for thinking otherwise!

Tje disparity is increasing. You just lied

You want less disparity? Move to Cuba. Go see what Communism gets you.

No but a system that treats everyone equally would be nice for a change. The disparity I spoke of is nothing new it actually started in the 1970's . Then Regan gave it a powerful boost when he slashed corporate taxes in half. The Great Recession of 2007 -2009 worsened things. What trump is doing now is cannabslizing what's left of our economy. No one will win in the end. The 1% are now receiving money from the government more or less and not paying in a single dime. This weakens the whole country. A military / a government can't prosper without good and real funding.. We're printing money with no basis in fact , simple trust keeps it afloat and that is eroding fast as everything is collapsing around us. We are now easy prey to destruction

I luv New York. None of the above whining and crying makes any sense. Grow up boys and girls, New York is a fascinating state, city, etc. Some of our favorites galleries, sites, and attractions are not far from this Philly family.

 

[my2¢]

NYC will be okay. Likewise, whatever comes out of the Epstein nonsense won't have the least effect on our lives. Oil barons in the Middle East along with our energy corporation CEO's will continue to determine the price we pay for a gallon of gasoline. And take note that political favorability polls aren't all that reliable.

What makes you think the 1% receives money from the government and doesn't pay any taxes? You really don't have a clue who pays taxes in the US...do you, Stann!

They pay nothing with all their tax loopholes. That was noted when trump started this insanity years ago.Most have government contracts so not only are they not paying their fair share they have unfair advantage to take from the government.

I hate to break this to you, Stann but the top 1% pay 40% of the taxes in the US. I don't know who's been filling your head with some of the nonsense you post here but you're coming off as a bit a dunce! Just saying...

Whatever you believe they're paying it is fine smalincomparisontowhat the average person pays. They get us coming and going with over 100 different taxes.Federal , State and local too many taxing entities. One tax of 10% for everyone , no exceptions , no loopholes would be the best solution. Ending all other taxes.

God, Stann...where have you gotten your education? You should sue for malpractice! Let me put this into context for you! If you taxed the top 1% at 100% of what they make you STILL couldn't pay for all of the Big Government entitlements that we're obligated for! I know your Poly Sci Professor doesn't tell you that but it's reality! Taxing the rich is not the solution. Anyone who tells you it is...is either incredibly ignorant or thinks YOU are incredibly ignorant!

And if you went to a flat tax the wealthy would pay less and the poor would pay more. Right now the poor don't pay anything at all in Federal taxes. Do you not grasp what a progressive tax rate is?

The poor shouldn't be paying any taxes that's correct. The wealthy can and should pay more. They made their money off the backs of the poor.

Last year it was reported that the 5 wealthiest paid NO taxes at all. So you don't know what you're talking about.

You just called for a flat tax, Stann. Make up your mind. We have a progressive tax system. The poor don't pay any Federal taxes at all. Is that what you want?
