That revenue will be made up somewhere else, you can lay to that. Governments don’t just voluntarily give up income.

Correct. Notice the OP is avoiding all the grooming threads, yet has no problem promoting communism while shaming those that won't accept it.

The fricking Democrats are the ones that created all of that bureaucratic red tape to get more of our money.

Just like All government regulatory handouts

They break your legs and then they give you crutches and say,
"see, look what I did for you, I helped you walk".

Have new taxes been levied on small businesses there?


New taxes? Im talking about the existing ones. If there were any new taxes on New York small businesses theyd probably have a better chance of turning a profit if they set fire to their establishments and fraudulently filed insurance claims.

That being said, if he is pushing for deregulation and cutting red tape isn't that inherently a good thing?


Yes, I'm just suspicious of a communist promising less government regs.

I always said that Mamdani’s actual governing of the city would not be the horror show that some predicted. The countervailing business interests in NYC are too strong. He wants to be viewed as successful in the end.
But “commie”, “socialist”, etc., are convenient bogeymen for this board and
GOP candidates… The USA is not under threat of a communist takeover and never has been in reality. McCarthy was a vicious, self-serving toad…

NYC has lost $10billion+ in tax revenue this year so far.

That news comes out. He gets it handed to him on the “mUh arrest Bibi” front, and he comes out with a bone that looks shiny, but we all know it’s for one reason. To get more tax revenue. Yes it’s good to remove red tape, but when you have a crap ton it’s not some great feat. Especially when it’s done for some political repair.

I see he did none of this until the money started fleeing NYC. Even communists must do what must be done in order to remain in power.

Mamdani has literally been a member of the DSA for nearly a decade.

But don’t take it from me, take from mamdani himself:
Mayor Zohran Mamdani defiantly vows to stick to socialist agenda in fiery inauguration speech

You can’t pretend these things aren’t happening anymore. Which is to say that I fully expect you to publicly maintain this disbelief while you vote for it, but no one actually believes that you don’t understand what’s going on.

This clown has a face I'd love to put a fist into! Especially when he has that shite-eating grin on it.
