This fucknut de Blasio was told by NY State Governor Cuomo and state legislators that he didn't even NEED to raise taxes, since the state had enough funds to pay for his pet pre-kindergarten program in NYC. And the fucknut said I don't care, I want to raise taxes anyway!
As the WSJ (Peggy Noonan) observed:
"When a man says he will raise taxes to achieve a program like pre-K education, and is quickly informed that that program can be achieved without raising taxes, and his answer is that he wants to raise taxes anyway, that man is an ideologue."
But then, he is just taking a page out of the playbook of Ideologue-in-Chief Odumbo.
