Communist NYC Mayoral Candidate Says “I Don’t Think We Should Have Billionaires”
Doubles Down on Targeting ‘Whiter Neighborhoods’ with Higher Taxes
The Gateway Pundit reported that socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has proudly stated he plans to fund his radical transformation of the city if he is elected: he will hike property taxes for “richer and whiter neighborhoods.”
The policy memo, ‘Stop the Squeeze on NYC Homeowners,’ promises to address a “deeply inequitable system, using the full power of the mayor’s office to both address the system directly and working with legislators at the state level to win necessary reforms” by “shift[ing] the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners in the outer boroughs to more expensive homes in richer and whiter neighborhoods.”
During an appearance on ‘Meet the Press’ on Sunday, he doubled down on the race-based approach to paying for his radical agenda, although he tried to suggest his proposal was “not driven by race.”
“That is just a description of what we see right now. It’s not driven by race. It’s more of an assessment of what neighborhoods are being under-taxed versus over-taxed,” Mamdani said.
