He wants all the money in his hands and the hands of his cronies. Higher taxes and keep the people needy.

Funny how people used to shun socialists for believing in that failed social/political/power system. Now they openly profess their adherence to it and laud their fascist fantasies of enforcing it.

Lying commies NEVER stop.

EVER.

Until you are either in their Gulag—or dead (usually in that sequence, too).

NYC isnt N. Korea.

That money can flow across the planet in seconds, and far away from these thieves.

Maybe deCommio should watch the old movie “Escape from New York” - unless he fancies himself the Duke of New York.

You don’t have to scratch any of these Leftists too deeply to find their true totalitarian nature.

“What gives you the right to confiscate the money I worked for to give to one of your voters?”

“Because I am more moral than you and know what is best for everyone.”

The socialist parts of this country are going to be dragging-down the economy and trying to blame this on the Republicans. Trump has to point out who is to blame — and avoid running on currently good data alone.

If the New Yorkers who heard this don't run him out of town on a tar and feather covered rail they deserve the totalitarian communism they are going to get.

I always felt that Joseph McCarthy bought this country valuable time by making Communism shameful in this country.

From the Communist revolution up the HUAC investigations (followed by McCarthy’s unrelated but well founded crusade on the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations to highlight communist infestation of our government) interest in Communism was regarded by many as being a harmless peccadillo, dabbled in by college students and eccentrics.

The actions of people in HUAC and McCarthy in particular made it shameful and unpalatable to normal Americans (As it should have been for an ideology responsible for hundreds of millions of murders in less than a century, never mind the oppression and imprisonment of many more)

McCarthy bought us at least a few decades, but beginning in the Sixties and culminating with the election of Barack Obama, it is no longer shameful and people have felt free to be open about it.

Which indicates a real underlying danger and corrosion to our freedom that they feel that freedom to be open about who they are due to lack of open negative judgement on their ideology.

That gambit will not relieve them of taxes.

We know fron the experience of Rush that after many years of absence from NYC, he still gets an annual NYC tax audit and they track his presence in the city to claim his earnings for that day or hour are NYC based and therefore taxable
