Pretty easy when the entire city goes bust because they were solely reliant on casino revenue, which they had a near east coast monopoly on, and all the sudden the market gets saturated in surrounding states. There were once busses full of oldsters pouring in to drop their social security checks in a slot machine, then casinos started popping up all over PA, NY and Delaware and destroyed the market. AC was awesome back in the day, better than Vegas in a lot of ways, but now you can gamble all over the place, even on your phone. Originally Posted by Jacuzzme

trump bankrupted those casinos LONG before AC became a dump or casinos started popping up in other states. And DECADES before gambling on your phone was a thing.

But hey, nice try

Funny how it's fucking crickets from the Maggies regarding Mamdani's utter THRASHING of trump in the Oval Office the other day.

I'll just leave this here again, in case any Maggies wanna step up to the plate and explain how their boy got ROLLED by Mr. Sharia Law

BREAKING: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is getting absolutely TORCHED online after his administration's emergency snow shoveler signup was exposed — requiring two passport-style photos, two original forms of ID (plus copies), and a Social Security card just to shovel snow for $19/hour.

Meanwhile, most registered voters in New York City can cast ballots without showing any ID at all.

Those are two completely different systems governed by different legal standards. One is payroll and employment law. The other is election law.

Requiring documentation to get paid by the city isn’t some shocking dystopian twist — it’s how hiring works everywhere.

‘UNBELIEVABLE!’ feels like it’s doing most of the heavy lifting here
So NYC is in a budget crunch.

Far left Mamdani proposes to raise taxes, raid the rainy day and pension fund.

And now he wants to waste $70 million more at the expense of tax payer, for city run grocery stores? These grocery stores have never worked any where.

He’s actually ahead of schedule to run NYC into the ground.

Crazy fucking Dems ruin everything they touch.

If you think city-run grocery stores won’t work, that’s a fair argument to make — what evidence is there from other cities? What were the outcomes? That’s a policy discussion.

‘NYC is going to hell’ is a headline. Whether a $70 million program is wise or not is a debate.
Anytime Mamdani faces a budget crisis, he knows (and has already proven) all he needs to do is request an Oval Office meeting with donnie diaperload, present him with some phony award and some flattering rhetoric, and trump turns to putty in his hands.

Every pet project in NYC will soon be funded by the federal government. Mamdani knows how to roll trump.

And it's fucking glorious. The blueprint has been laid. trump just loves "winning awards" and having nice things said about him. Like a precious little princess. Mamdani owns trump.

Other budget stuff? Free stuff ain’t free. Does this model, and how Mamdani appears to be echoing certain aspects work in Cuba? Venezuela? Where did it work? Nowhere.

Lastly you know what the profit margin for a grocery store is? It’s 1-3%. So NYC and government cronies are going to set up shop and run this thing as efficiently as the experts and the public will see that level of profit margin as additional savings off of their groceries? Sure.

If food access is a concern I’d rather see him offer tax incentives for multiple grocery stores to move in and do what they do best. Let them compete against each other, the consumer will benefit.
Quite a week for Mamdani

Mamdani calls out first, and by name, a "White supremacist" for protesting.

Mamdani then leaves out the 2 Muslim men, Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, who were arrested by NYPD after they yelled "Allahu Akbar!" and threw a homemade bomb into the crowd.

In addition Mamdanis wife is caught liking social media posts related to horrific Hamas Oct 7th attack in Israel. Imagine another leaders wife doing that?

And let’s not forget the Muslim wearing a “property of Allah” shirt who shot and killed 3 and injured 14 in Austin, Texas.

You don’t have to live like this, but Dem border policies will only make this worse in the future…..
Mamdani does it again!

You’d be hard pressed to find a home in NYC valued at less than $750k. So let’s get this straight, you work your whole life to own your home, save up your 401k so you can retire. But upon death you can give half of your worth over $750k to the local government? You have a guy from Uganda confiscating wealth to reallocate to illegals.

IMO that number will eventually be lowered as the tax base starts to leave NYC.

Wake up. Quit voting Dem or this is coming to you.

“Zohran Mamdani is proposing to raise NY's estate tax to 50% and have it kick in at $750,000 instead of more than $7 million”

Your daily reminder that the felon running our country LOVES Mamdani. trump never even looks at Melanie or Ivanka the way he ogles The Zohran.

Where’s the outrage from the leftys on the board? Weird how the MSM ignored the story.

“Woke wife of NYC's socialist mayor accused of using N-word and sharing yet more posts celebrating Palestinian terrorism”
