    Zohran shouldn’t increase their taxes too much. If he can raise it this tiny unnoticeable amount and get lower rents, free busses, cheaper childcare, and lower food prices then it will show other cities and states what they can do with taxing these greedy assholes. Then in the next federal election cycle someone like him can come in and push for a bigger tax rise federally for these robber barons. Give them tax hikes or give them a one way trip to the guillotine basket, suddenly taxes won’t seem like such a bother.

      Fuck that. Show what he can get for people nailing them to the wall and bleeding them like they bleed us.

      It’s fucking new York; they won’t all leave. And if they do it’s still a win.

      And its not like they’ll treat a more moderate move like less of an attack than fully raiding the banks taking theironey out in gold and disbanding the nypd¹

      ¹it turns out I complain about the LAPD enough my autocorrect just turns all cops into them, and I didnt catch it.
