Mamdani’s “tax the rich” shtick is a smokescreen for his own ideological grift. His $XX wage fantasy would vaporize small businesses, his rent freezes would implode housing markets, and his city-run grocery stores are a blueprint for Soviet-style lines.

NYC’s already drowning in a $3.6B deficit—Mamdani’s answer? More spending, more taxes, more collapse.

Billionaires aren’t the problem. Mamdani’s economic illiteracy is. His policies don’t redistribute wealth—they destroy it.
