$300!! Wow, over the coming year I can spend an extra 80 cents a day! Or, I could save that up for a week and get an espresso at Starbucks every Saturday!

That is the name of the game. It’s about sales tax generation. It’s why they don’t care about the illegals here. We all pay sales tax.

Nothing helps inflation like sending out more money to the peasants

"In the fiscal year of 2022, New York's state debt stood at about 166.51 billion U.S. dollars."

How about paying down monster debt bill first?..... fricking liberals!

The city is providing migrants with $350 per week on prepaid debit cards. This is more than the average $291 per month given to low-income U.S. citizens through food stamps.

If they are giving you back money that you paid to begin with then they are taking too much already.

Leftist logic. We will give you free money even though we took it from you. But we will give illegals $2,500 per month

She could have just cut rates by a half or quarter point.

But you don’t get a check with her name on it.

How the fack can you even start to claim you cant "survive" in NYC clocking in 300k or 150k


Realistically if you’re making $150k you’re not going to be able to afford to live in Manhattan.

My son pays $9k a month rent in NYC and daycare / pre-k for his kid is $38k per year.

But sure live in that wild dream that $150k is such a huge income.

Do some of you people ever venture outside of your trailer? Let alone this state.

They are trying to herd people back to their party after the illegals have been living at the Ritz and pissing off the regular folks.

Sadly, they think you’re worth $300. That’s generous. They really don’t care about you period.

She's going to fight inflation by doing something inflationary.

She also wants to stop the use of natural gas and have everyone convert to all electric and save money too. Electric heat and hot water in NYC costs over 4 times that of natural gas and nearly half of the electric power is generated from gas.

How dumb is that?

She can’t be that stupid.

It’s like giving sugar to cure diabetes.
