5 billion of that decrease was due to Wall Street having an amazing year with their bonuses. Ya know, Wall Street, the prime example of capitalism and the free market bailing his ass out. He had nothing to do with the firms having a great year nor did he have anything to do with the tax code that was in place to tax those gains
A Democrat backed and supported explicitly by republicans and the Trump admin lmao. A “democrat” who switched to the Republican Party in the 2025 mayoral election, lmao. I get it, you don’t wanna claim him. You’re already on the hook for the Iran war and all the pedophilia and murder. But Trump claimed him on your behalf already, bud.
It seems like you have a very specific issue that you are upset is costing you more money, assumedly because you don’t believe you should have to pay taxes, and it’s causing you to act as though everyone in NYC feels the way you do. But NYC voted mamdani in. So, clearly they don’t. It’s not like higher taxes are a surprise, they’re literally an integral part of his plan.
Right, but I’m talking about Bushwick East New York Brownsville the place where African-Americans and Latinos live. Those guys are being affected by those taxes because I have relatives there I have seen many people move out of there and corporations are buying up these houses that people used to own and turning it into the little gentrified area areas.
Now the classic idpol card. “Won’t you think of all the poor black and brown homeowners who will have to, *gasp*, pay TAXES?” Yes dawg they should pay taxes too. And for the record, big corporations were turning your city into gentrified little neighborhoods way before Mamdani came along. He’s the only one with any policy plans or seeming genuine intention to help solve that issue.
You’re ignoring the point this is affecting homeowners in the Latino and African-American community. This is only gonna negatively affect them. I love how you guys always want to argue about being the party that represents all people but when policies actually affect the ones who we always advocate for you guys like to stay silent.
First off and it’s very disrespectful because I actually have a lot of relatives and know a lot of people who are affected by these policies. Second of all are you even from New York actually I do wanna know are you from New York cause I don’t think you’re a New Yorker I bet that you’re probably some out of state person who only likes to read the news and actually has no idea what’s going on here.
You’re definitely I provided my points and talked about experiences that I have seen and heard and you don’t want to acknowledge the facts instead, you decide to disrespect me. I have been nothing but very respectful towards you. You’ve never said anything condescending, but you have decided to insult me.
Your experiences are just words. I have no way to figure out if they’re true, and frankly no reason to believe they’re true. I’m sorry you can’t win me over by telling personal stories about your life. But this is an anonymous app on the internet, and people lie. So, I’m gonna need some actual data.
“Listen man I can’t show you any hard data on the shit I made up, because it doesn’t exist, but come with me let’s talk to the average voter and see what they think.” Brother they taught a chimpanzee to understand the politics of the median voter and it hanged itself. Give me data.
Brother, sometimes stats aren’t necessarily the most accurate thing they failed to predict the election of trump two times. People lie all the time but when you actually speak to them face-to-face and have a genuine conversation, they’re actually gonna give you the actual info and stuff
Okay. Buddy. When you’re predicting the outcome of an event, statistics cannot prove anything. The event hasn’t happened yet. However, if what you’re describing happened, it can be measured. You’re literally discounting the CONCEPT OF DATA, because election predictions aren’t always accurate.
Data can also be manipulated yk all I’m saying is the best way of actually understanding real world now she’s actually just talking to the native people there that that’s all I’m saying, but you’re putting all these bs words and stuff that I never said, and trying to win this argument
What you’re saying is measurably wrong. Anecdotes provided by random people are an empirically bad way to measure objective reality. Ironically, there is data on this. I’d ask if you want to see it, but Kamala Harris lost when she was predicted to win, so I know you can’t trust it.
Do you have any reason to believe the data is being secretly manipulated to trick you? I mean, cigarette companies literally made the studies that said cigarettes were healthy. They forced that outcome. If you’re trying to insinuate mamdani is *somehow* doing that as well, I’d want to know both why and how?
Because to me it looks like you have all these accusations you’re levying against mamdani, that he’s bad for black and brown home owners, that his taxes will drive people away- And literally ZERO evidence to prove it. Meanwhile, as mentioned, Mamdani continues to lower the projected budget deficit left behind by the man you propagandize on behalf of.
