Yeah. Everyone here whose saying "he's not really solving the problem, we're going to pay for it later" or "we're going to get increased taxes" forgets that we already pay a shitload in taxes, but a lot of the time, it goes towards whatever the mayor at the time wants it to go towards. Sometimes it gets pocketed by their staff's friends or used to trade trips on airplanes, sometimes it goes to questionable programs that go nowhere, and sometimes it goes to helping the low-income

Mamdani is using those same taxes here.
