1) The deficit isn't closed, it's projected. We won't know the real damage until 2028.
2) He closed it with a $4 billion bailout from NY State. Every taxpayer in New York State is paying for his policies, including people who don't live in NYC.
3) The pied-à-terre tax will likely cost more in lost tax revenue than it will ever collect. That loss doesn't appear anywhere in this budget.
4) His own budget assumes the pied-à-terre tax brings in $500 million. His own comptroller says it's $340-380 million. He's already lying in his own math.
5) The pension payment delay doesn't eliminate debt. It defers it and increases the total cost to taxpayers. He made the 2028 deficit bigger to make the 2027 numbers look clean.

The reason the $12 billion you are posting about is the money that was shifted (stolen) from the New York State budget that was given (stolen) by the governor of New York to the city of New York.
As of May 2026, Governor Hochul and the state legislature have committed nearly $8 billion in new state aid over two years to help New York City bridge its budget gaps, including a newly announced $4 billion in May 2026. This funding is designed to stabilize the city's financial position, following earlier commitments.

Calm down. We had a thread that the straight was closed.

Absolutely proving the point hat socialism is great as long as you have other people's money to spend.
Margaret Thatcher about commies:
"The eternal problem of the communists: they've run out of other people's money to live on".
"communists—marxists, socialists, and everyone in between—have distorted and appropriated key words like “freedom” and “community.”
"communism and socialism suffer from the same problem: too much, too centralized government, which deprives the people of the right and opportunity to exercise self-government".
"communism seizes power by force, not by the free choice of the people"
"socialists believe that people can't be trusted to choose... cocialism is the denial of choice, the denial of choice for ordinary people in their everyday lives. In Britain, there is a desire to work and build a future for our children. But socialists don't trust the people".
Thatcher championed individual freedom, personal responsibility and hard work, free markets and limited government. Community, but not collectivism.

Thanks. Giving you an upvote.

They siphoned it from the state budget. Without the state of NY ignoring 2/3 of the state NYC doesn’t have a balanced budget.
That’s like saying since the treasury can produce more dollars the federal budget is balanced.

I didn't know the state had given that much. Wow. I knew there had to be a catch on him balancing the budget this quickly. There was no-way to have that much tax revenue from increases to cover that.
Has he made cuts to spending at all?

Sure is correct this is a free trial run.
But NYC balances its budget every year.
There was no deficit he inherited.

More likely you are just retarded and didn't grasp the fact that the state had to chip in $8B and the rest came from deferring pension pay and raising fees on everything else they could.

Never would happen. Promises of gifts from the public coffers would always win out. A certain someone wrote that this would be our downfall back in 1835. We are almost there.

Do you agree with Mamdani on urban governance?

5 pages by 6:52 in the AM and you’ve completely abandoned this thread with only the original spunk that dribbled out of your pie hole and one non-reply.
Yeah, you are a moron and an embarrassment. And a commie loser to boot.
As someone else said, an actual oyster poboy is smarter.
