    Is there a reason why you place strawmen interpretations when trying to actualize meaningful progress?

    Mamdani cannot liquidate private equity.

    In his city, he can make it both illegal to do so, and use that liquidity for state projects.

    Targeting industry might or might not be possible for a mayor…

    Better to try where it actually penalizes the rich, than people with actual needs of secondary homes.

      Can you describe exactly why anyone would need a second home? I cannot fathom any legitimate reason besides luxury for no reason.

          How would it help a disability any more than a hotel or some such? Unless it’s related to weather/climate somehow.

          Idk what you mean by logistics but maybe
          idk what surveys sheltering is
          Snowbirding barely legitimate, if you make enough to afford it you deserve to be taxed for it.

            Not all hotels have the dedicated staff to take of people say paralytic, dialysis, sun allergies, etc…

            Access to water, food, resources, equipment, etc. Bananas don’t grow whene apples grow, etc.
            Mountainous vs flats, vs lakes, vs rivers, etc.

            Snowbirding barely legitimate, if you make enough to afford it you deserve to be taxed for it.

            Then go right ahead and die of hypothermia🙃.

            For a progressive, you sure like to steal from people.

      Mamdani’s actions in the first few months of his mayorship have been one of the few bright spots of meaningful progress we have seen in the past decade.

      In his city, he can make it both illegal to do so, and use that liquidity for state projects.

      Citation needed

      This is rich. Somehow Mamdani is not going hard enough against the money and also he is picking on the poor and downtrodden who own Million dollar flats that they don’t even live in.
