I'm not sure economics is a strong suit of the Mambani administration. They seem to be more interested in setting the social agenda and depending on the state/federal government to bail them out.

If I were putting together a budget with more than a $5billion hole, I'd be a little more frugal with the money I had.
It’s unbelievable. Truly unbelievable.

Democrats want to tax so bad. They talk about affordability crisis and raising taxes in the same breath. It’s an interesting position to take when the last vote was a referendum on affordability.

Mamdani and New York want to raise your taxes. Hochul may raise your taxes. Rho Khanna wants to raise your taxes.

Chamath is financing a challenger to Khanna because he is so upset about it.

My question is, are democrats TOTALLY misreading the room?

How can they talk affordability when they want to raise taxes?

Trump raised tariffs and inflation still came down. If Democrats can raise taxes without increasing inflation I’m all ears.


The peak of this country was when the top tax bracket was 80%

it appears though that this proposal does nothing about tax brackets, it's strictly a wealth tax. And unlike what is being proposed in California, this would be an every year tax. Because based on the spending proposal, just child care for example, you have the spending/funding tail forever.

The poor have it too good

While the rest of your post is gold, as well, I wanted to highlight this portion of it as, perhaps, one of the worst statements not involving actual atrocities (murder, rape, molestation, slavery, etc. ... so PalmettoTiger's statement that wanting to bang your daughter is one of the highest honors you can bestow is excluded) that have ever been uttered.

All non-MAGAts need to do is grab this and post it as indicative of the MAGAt way, and game over ... MAGAts will never be in power again.
