I hate to say I told you so

​​​​​​​A true cult MAGA reply.

A true ZERO credibility reply.

You've debunked nothing while doubling down on your alternate reality bullshit.

YEP.   It's truly deranged.   


I think we've pretty much established that Mamdani has lied to the people of NYC ... and that he's going to rob the productive so that he has 'free stuff' to give away to the unproductive and thus he'll be able to keep his power.   It's exactly what all communist leadership does.   The bastards think t hat they have a right to take people's money simply because those people are more productive and earn more.    It's theft.   It's slavery to the state.   It's failed around the world.   And only an idiot would sign up to support it.

....and you've completely ignored my post that contained professional opinions on Mamdani's impact on real estate in New York.

Which I admit is par for the course with you. If you can't refute it, you just pretend it doesn't exist.

I ignore Fox News sources, try an independent source and I will not ignore it.

I was just reading about NYC real estate sales...

"Post-Mamdani election data shows no surge in departures; in fact, sales of luxury Manhattan homes over $4M increased in November 2025, indicating continued demand" (LLM) (The Guardian)

The millionaires are not leaving, yet.

Mamdani may or may not raise taxes but he has not raised taxes yet and is working for New Yorkers for that to NOT happen. Hochel kicked in the deficit gap for this year @ $1.5 billion (which it is at $2 billion). Let's see where his auditors can find waste and mismanagement of funds from the previous mayors mishandling of the budget.

"It is reported that only 1 in 10 millionaires follow through with leaving NYC whereas the other 9 only threaten to leave but never follow through."

You are only being nice calling them the "unproductive"

I will call them the useless freeloaders.

  You refuse to read FOX news sources, but quote left wing NY TIMES like it's the gospel.  
Yeah .. you aren't a left winger at all, are ya'?   


Mamdani has only been in office 6 weeks.
The rich and middle class haven't had time yet to sell and get out.
But they plan to.   They'd be fools not to.
They are being abused and robbed by Mamdani.
Only a moron would stick around for more when they could leave and stop it.
The left keep saying they won't follow through.
The left HOPEs those people don't follow through.
Otherwise, there won't be anyone to rob.

Nope. Don't recognize the New York Times as a reputable source.
 They are notoriously Left leaning and biased, not nearly the "independent source" you insist that everyone but you have to use.

Next.

Fortune is right-centre leaning too but it too agrees with my other two sources? All three sources I posted here so far are saying the same thing about the rich not leaving NYC.

The only sources saying the opposite are opinion pieces that are speculating and fearmongering to push a narrative and you are being led by the nose due to your biases. Fox business is rated as middle-of-the-road bias and certain other hosts have been proven to have made false claims.

I do read some Fox News sources along with others to get a consensus on what may be reality, but I'm not like you guys here where you all just jump on the first source that fits your political bias.

New Yorkers want the rich to pay their fair share and Hochel is on board with some but not all of his plans.

 

Define "fair share"

[quintessentone]

Define "fair share"

Look up Democratic Socialism and you will get your definition.

No, you tell me.

is it 100%?

90%?

How much do you want to take?

How hard do you want to punish success?
