Yeah, this one refutes all those here who complained about President Trump's tax cuts and wrongly argued they only benefited the rich

And this refutes those who disparage success and want more and more taxes on success while half the fucking country takes more from the government and pay virtually nothing

Mayor Adams - NYC:

"To continually attack high income earners when 51% of our taxes are paid by 2% of New Yorkers -- this blows my mind when I hear people say 'so what if they leave.' No you leave! I want my high income earners right here in this city!"

Democrats now want to tax unrealized gains.

They’re running out of ways to tax the money you do have so now they’re trying to tax money you don’t even have yet.
To be fair Adams really is not a crazy liberal, but rather a more moderate Democrat. He ran AGAINST much of the far left agenda, especially the whole “defund the police” nonsense. I am not surprised that he recognizes that incessant tax increases that cause high income earners to leave the city are counterproductive.
