They are assuming that the Federal will bail their Pension funds out. They always have.

Go Woke, Go Broke.

Seems like an easy rule to remember.

Messing with Mafia money may be a shorter trip to the grave than knowing something that puts Hillary in prison. Hillary has to work through third parties. The Mob just leans forward, presses the intercom button and the job is engaged.

I wonder if these funds are over- or under- funded. I would guess the latter.

I’m sure some must be reflecting on the country song by Dierk Bentley - What was I Thinkin’.

Anyone with money is “rich” to a communist.

Oh ye suckers in New York City. A system that has NEVER before worked in history is now being implemented in NYC because you voted this communist into office !

Let your suffering begin in earnest. Let your regret pile as high as the buildings in Manhattan.

Overstuffed pension funds from public union coercion. Could be worse.

I love it when people get what they voted for.

How can he just raise property taxes by himself? Aren’t others involved? Isn’t there a vote?

Mamdani described the property tax hike and reserve raid as a last resort, preferring to instead raise taxes on high-income earners

Last Resort?

For a last resort, it didn't take him long to get there.

Seems to me that spending less money might have been an option to consider before spending money intended to pay for retired working folks healthcare.

After all, communism is all about government funded healthcare.

At the rate he’s going, Mom Donny won’t have the weight he used to need to throw around for very much longer.

Why can’t he take more from the pensions? He should max out the IOU slips.
