I hate to say I told you so

No, not really because Stevie Wonder could have seen this coming.

As we know, the wealthy are getting out of New York and taking their businesses with them. Even Wall Street has been talking about relocating to Dallas.

Shocker, right ? People want to keep their money and not have it taken from them just because they are successful. So what do they do ? They take their money someplace else.

Now, along comes Mamdani telling people he's going to raise taxes on the rich and corporations so they can have free daycare, free bus rides, city owned grocery stores...just basically all the feel good stick it to the man propaganda he could shovel.

And they believed it.

Now, however, he says if a tax hike on the rich is not approved, well, he'll just have to start taxing the Average Joe. Holchul has already said she's not going to do it, so where does this lead ? Yep. The people he promised all the free shit are now going to be paying for all the free shit.

When are people going to understand TANSTAAFL isn't just a Heinlein quote.

Anyone who didn't see this coming is an idiot.
Then there are those who don't care and support it anyways.
They are worse than idiots.
They are useful idiots.   Part of the problem in the world.

Well, when you plan on just turning them back out on the street without prosecuting them, why bother hiring more cops to arrest them in the first place.

Then they'll use those stats to say crime has dropped.
