Zohran Mamdani's New York City is uninhabitable
The dirty little secret is that big government liberalism is more expensive than limited government conservatism. Florida's population is a little less than double the size of New York State's. Despite that statistic, New York State's state budget is almost twice the size of Florida's state budget.
Another high-profile agenda item on Mamdani's website is "no cost childcare." According to Mamdani, "After rent, the biggest cost for New York’s working families is childcare. It’s literally driving them out of the city: New Yorkers with children under six are leaving at double the rate of all others. The burden falls heaviest on mothers, who are giving up paying jobs to do unpaid childcare." Again, New York's taxes are high because government is doing too much.
Mamdani has a faux solution:
Zohran will implement free childcare for every New Yorker aged 6 weeks to 5 years, ensuring high quality programming for all families. And he will bring up wages for childcare workers – a quarter of whom currently live in poverty – to be at parity with public school teachers. It will foster early childhood development, save parents money and keep our families in the city they call home.Who's going to pay for these programs? Does Mamdani think that there's an unlimited supply of money to pay for these things? Or is there a goose that's constantly laying golden eggs? With all that government to pay for, he shoudn't be surprised if that goose moves to Florida and doesn't return.
As Mayor, Zohran will immediately freeze the rent for all stabilized tenants, and use every available resource to build the housing New Yorkers need and bring down the rent. The number one reason working families are leaving our city is the housing crisis. The Mayor has the power to change that.It's amazing how many free things Mambani is promising. He can;'t keep these promises because the people paying for all this 'free' stuff will leave New York City, with most leaving for Miami, FL.The Mamdani MigrationEx-Biden official: Mamdani's policies won't workWill these rich New Yorkers wake up and campaign against this snake oil salesman? Or will they just move to Miami? That's what we'll find out this November.
