The money for DAT FREE STUFF has to come from somewhere. I’m surprised Redditors are acknowledging his plan kind of sucks.

I think they’re realizing landlords will increase their rents if property taxes go up.

they won't do shit about it. they'll grumble and pay up. NYCmos are actually close to the ideal tax cattle/pay-piggies/etc. they often have a strong personal desire to live in the city for status or cultural reasons, and will pay up for the privilege.

if anything, they are probably substantially undertaxed from that perspective. it makes sense to start squeezing them and charging them more of a premium for their preferences.

Lol, you don't know me if you don't think I like fiscal conservatism regardless of who is implementing it.

That said, cutting spending is probably the first thing he should look at. But in NYC that's probably harder than raising taxes.

Dummy, cities have to balance the budget because they don’t have a money printer.

Now they CAN issue bonds, but NYC would get shit rates without raising more revenue.

So the idea is that for like every new dollar you raise in taxes you can borrow 3 more and leave the next mayor to sort it out.

So if you’re a lib boomer in Brooklyn Heights with a $5MM brownstone you’ll owe an extra $5MM x .095% every year? Do I have this right?
