Live From New York: The Latest Marxist Proposal from NYC’s Sandinista Mayor
The American Spectator ^ | August 9, 2017 | George Neumayr

To pay for the Big Apple’s crappy subway, he proposes a new tax on people who don’t use it. In the 1980s, Bill de Blasio supported the Sandinista National Liberation Front, whose regime of Marxism terrorized and impoverished Nicaragua. He worked as a political organizer for a group of communists and socialists called the Quixote Center in Maryland, traveling down to Nicaragua to participate in its “revolution.”

De Blasio is an unabashed socialist with marxist roots. He supported the communist Sandinistas in Nicaragua, even going so far as to break a U.S. embargo, to aid the communists. THIS is what happened in De Blasio's beloved Nicaragua (ref: communiststats.com ). In one brief decade—the decade in which De Blasio supported the Sandinistas and lent them aid--Sandinistas killed 3,000 political prisoners... jailed 11,000. Prisoners were skinned alive; drawn & quartered; forced to watch wives and daughters sexually assaulted; caged in cubicles less than a square meter; "punished" via electric shock; deprived of food and water....Sandinista’s had their own trail of tears….imprisoning and forcibly relocating 35,000 native Americans. Sandinistas killed 110 strikers for wanting back pay. And NONE of these atrocities were military-related. Moreover, if you extrapolate the country’s small population to those populations of the Eastern Bloc, it becomes even more apparent that this was just another communist regime without a soul.

I live in NY. I call him “DeGasio” — he’s full of hot air.

He has been around for years. All of this was known or should have been known by voters before he could get in a position to do any more harm . New Yorkers elected him by a landslide. Well, to be more precise, 24 % of eligible NYC voters elected him by a landslide.

This is why I call the Left, the Culture of Death. You might add Islam to that catagory.

Let De Crazio increase taxes on NYC rich liberals as much as he wants. NYC failure in the 70’s was an important warning about liberalism to the rest of the USA.

A spectacular failure of liberalism once again in NYC will be a repeat of that warning.
